Requires FBI to share more details about terrorist and crime watchlists with Congress
This bill would make the FBI share more information with Congress about how it manages the terrorist and transnational organized crime watchlists. It would also require annual reports on U.S. citizens on the terrorist watchlist, increasing oversight where none currently exists. This means Congress would get regular updates and detailed data to review these important lists.
Today, the FBI is not required by law to tell Congress about changes to watchlist policies or to provide annual reports on U.S. citizens on the terrorist watchlist. If this bill passes, the FBI would have to notify Congress within 30 days of any major policy changes, provide watchlist rules upon request, and submit annual reports for three years detailing U.S. citizens on the terrorist watchlist.
