Referred to the Committee on the Judiciary, and in addition to the Committee on Homeland Security, for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned.
H.R. 8142, the Special Events Program Alignment Act of 2026, would transfer the Department of Homeland Security's Special Events Program to the department's Office of Situational Awareness. The bill requires this transfer to occur within 180 days of enactment and would move all related personnel, equipment, records, and funding along with the program. The legislation affects DHS operations and how the federal government organizes oversight of special events security and intelligence gathering. No specific funding amounts are detailed in the bill text, as it primarily reorganizes existing resources within the department rather than appropriating new money.
