Lets federal border agents help communities respond to violent acts and mass killings.
This bill would allow U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to assist in responding to and investigating violent acts, shootings, and mass killings. It would also expand the types of help other federal agencies can offer, giving communities more support during these crises.
Today, U.S. Customs and Border Protection cannot officially help with investigations into violent acts, shootings, or mass killings, and other agencies are limited to "investigation." This bill would allow CBP to assist and would expand the types of help all authorized agencies can provide to include response, threat reduction, and resolution.
