1. Short title This Act may be cited as the Extending Anti-Terrorism Protections Act of 2025.

2. Risk management system In this section, the term qualified anti-terrorism technology has the meaning given the term in section 865 of the Support Anti-Terrorism by Fostering Effective Technologies Act of 2002 (6 U.S.C. 444). Through fiscal year 2029, the Secretary of Homeland Security may temporarily extend the duration of protections provided under the system of risk management set forth in the Support Anti-Terrorism by Fostering Effective Technologies Act of 2002 (6 U.S.C. 441 et seq.) to a qualified anti-terrorism technology if the Secretary determines that— an application for the renewal of such protections was submitted not later than 165 days before the date of the expiration of such protections; and such application for renewal was complete upon submission. A determination by the Secretary to temporarily extend protections to a qualified anti-terrorism technology pursuant to the authority provided by subsection (b) may not be construed to preclude or otherwise limit the authority of the Secretary to ultimately approve or deny the application for renewal of such protections.
