DHS Intelligence Rotational Assignment Program and Law Enforcement Support Act
Summary
What This Bill Does
The DHS Intelligence Rotational Assignment Program and Law Enforcement Support Act amends Homeland Security Act section 844. It requires the Homeland Security Secretary to ensure that every Department of Homeland Security component that is a member of the DHS Intelligence Enterprise participates in the Office of the Director of National Intelligence Intelligence Community Civilian Joint Duty Program. Participation must be consistent with policies established by the Director of National Intelligence for that program. In practical terms, DHS intelligence offices such as Intelligence and Analysis, CBP intelligence units, ICE Homeland Security Investigations intelligence personnel, TSA intelligence staff, Coast Guard intelligence offices, Secret Service intelligence offices, and other DHS Intelligence Enterprise components would have to align personnel rotations with ODNI joint-duty requirements rather than treating participation as optional or uneven across components.
Who Benefits and How
DHS intelligence analysts, DHS Intelligence Enterprise components, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, intelligence-community workforce managers, homeland-security mission centers, counterterrorism analysts, border-security intelligence offices, transportation-security intelligence staff, Coast Guard intelligence offices, and Secret Service protective-intelligence offices benefit from more standardized joint-duty rotations, broader interagency experience, and a clearer career-development path across the intelligence community.
Who Bears the Burden and How
The Department of Homeland Security, DHS component intelligence chiefs, DHS human-capital offices, component supervisors, ODNI joint-duty program administrators, security-clearance managers, workforce planners, and mission offices must coordinate assignments, backfill personnel, track compliance with DNI policies, manage rotation logistics, and absorb temporary staffing disruption when personnel rotate to other intelligence-community assignments.
Key Provisions
- Requires every DHS Intelligence Enterprise component to participate in the ODNI Intelligence Community Civilian Joint Duty Program.
- Requires participation to follow policies established by the Director of National Intelligence.
- Amends Homeland Security Act section 844 to make the requirement part of DHS intelligence personnel law.
- Provides a department-wide joint-duty rotation obligation rather than a grant, procurement, or enforcement program.
