  • Dhs-Accomplishments-Fact-Sheet.Pdf
    Office of Public Affairs U.S. Department of Homeland Security Homeland Security Starts with Hometown Security As Secretary Napolitano said in the inaugural “State of America’s Homeland Security” address in January, our nation is more secure than it was two years ago, and more secure than when DHS was founded eight years ago. All of our efforts are guided by a simple but powerful, idea ‐‐ homeland security begins with hometown security. We are all safer when local law enforcement works together with the communities and citizens they serve, and their partners in the Federal government and the private sector, to protect against the threats we face. Since it was formed in 2003, DHS has achieved significant progress across its key mission areas: preventing terrorism, securing our borders; enforcing our immigration laws; securing cyberspace; and ensuring resilience to disasters: Preventing terrorism and enhancing security. Protecting the United States from terrorism is the cornerstone of homeland security. Most recently, in January 2011, Secretary Napolitano announced the new National Terrorism Advisory System (NTAS), which will more effectively communicate information about terrorist threats by providing timely, detailed information to the public, government agencies, first responders, airports and other transportation hubs, and the private sector. DHS has also led a global initiative to strengthen the international aviation system through partnerships with governments and industry, investments in new technology, and enhanced international standards and targeting measures. In November 2010, the Department fulfilled a key 9/11 Commission recommendation by fully implementing Secure Flight, under which the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) checks 100 percent of passengers on flights within or bound for the United States against government watchlists.

  • US Customs and Border Protection's Powers and Limitations
    Legal Sidebari U.S. Customs and Border Protection’s Powers and Limitations: A Brief Primer December 9, 2020 U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), a component of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), enforces federal customs and immigration laws at or near the international border and at U.S. ports of entry. Congress has established a comprehensive framework enabling CBP officers to inspect, search, and detain individuals to ensure their entry and any goods they import conform to these governing laws. That authority is not absolute. The Fourth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution prohibits government searches and seizures that are not reasonable. While the government has broader latitude to conduct searches at the border than in the interior of the United States, these searches must still satisfy Fourth Amendment requirements. This Legal Sidebar briefly explains CBP’s customs and immigration enforcement powers and the constitutional limitations to that authority. (A separate DHS component, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement [ICE], is primarily responsible for immigration and customs enforcement in the interior of the United States; a discussion of ICE’s enforcement powers can be found here.) Many topics covered in this Sidebar are more extensively discussed in CRS Report R46601, Searches and Seizures at the Border and the Fourth Amendment, by Hillel R. Smith and Kelsey Y. Santamaria. Background The Homeland Security Act of 2002 established CBP as the component within DHS mainly responsible for protecting the nation’s international borders through enforcing federal customs and immigration laws (CBP also enforces other laws relating to the border, including those concerning the introduction of harmful plant or animal species and public health requirements).
