Key Provisions

  • Establishes a new grant program within the Department of Homeland Security to distribute $500 million per year in funding to eligible states for border security initiatives.
  • Grant funds could be used for personnel, equipment, technology, infrastructure, and other measures to enhance state-level border surveillance, interdiction, and enforcement capabilities.
  • Requires states to provide at least 25% in matching funds to receive federal grants.
  • Directs the DHS to develop standardized training and certification programs for state and local law enforcement involved in border security operations.
  • Mandates increased coordination and information-sharing between federal, state, and local authorities on border security matters.

Affected Parties

  • State governments, particularly those with international borders, would be the primary recipients of funding and resources under this bill.
  • State and local law enforcement agencies responsible for border security functions would be required to participate in new training and coordination programs.
  • The Department of Homeland Security would be tasked with administering the new grant program and developing supporting policies and procedures.

Timeline and Procedure

  • H.R. 3464 was introduced in the House and referred to the Committee on Homeland Security.
  • If approved by the committee, the bill would then proceed to consideration by the full House of Representatives.
  • The Senate companion bill, S. 1790, was introduced concurrently and would need to be reconciled with the House version before final passage.
