A Tremendous Accomplishment for Homeland Security
For several months, the Committee worked tirelessly to achieve a comprehensive port security bill that we could send to the President for approval – and that is exactly what we accomplished. With the President’s signature on this legislation, the security of one of our biggest domestic vulnerabilities – our seaports – will be greatly enhanced and anti-terror measures will be put into place. This is an incredible accomplishment for this Committee and the security of our nation.
Having this legislation become law is one of the most important things we’ll do this year to advance homeland security. The SAFE Port Act takes the necessary steps to secure our ports, and the American people will be safer because of it.
