Directing the Secretary of Homeland Security to transmit to the House of Representatives certain documents relating to Department of Homeland Security policies and activities related to the security of Department information and data and the recruitment and retention of its workforce.
Summary
H.Res. 113 is a non-binding resolution that would direct the Department of Homeland Security to submit documentation to the House of Representatives regarding two key areas: the security of DHS information and data systems, and the department's efforts to recruit and retain employees. The resolution specifically focuses on access to DHS data by the Department of Government Efficiency and the Office of Personnel Management.
This resolution has been reported by the Committee on Homeland Security and is now eligible for a floor vote in the House. However, as a non-binding resolution, it would not have the force of law and would not require presidential signature. If passed, it would essentially direct DHS to provide Congress with transparency regarding how the department protects sensitive information and manages its workforce during a period of potential organizational changes.
