This bill would prohibit the Department of Homeland Security from using federal funds to establish or operate a Homeland Intelligence Experts Group or any equivalent program or initiative. The restriction would apply immediately upon the bill's enactment and would prevent the department from creating similar groups, programs, or activities that serve the same purpose. The legislation does not specify funding amounts because it is a prohibition rather than an appropriation, meaning it blocks spending rather than allocating money. The bill was introduced in September 2023 by Representatives Pfluger, Green, McCaul, Higgins, and Ezell and was referred to the House Committee on Homeland Security. The legislation affects the Department of Homeland Security and would prevent it from dedicating any federal resources to this particular intelligence initiative.
