ACTION: Final rule. SUMMARY: This rule adopts as final, with one substantive change, interim amendments to DHS regulations published in the Federal Register on June 9, 2008 and August 9, 2010 regarding the Elec- tronic System for Travel Authorization (ESTA). ESTA is the online system through which nonimmigrant aliens intending to enter the United States under the Visa Waiver Program (VWP) must obtain a travel authorization in advance of travel to the United States. The June 9, 2008 interim final rule established ESTA and set the require- ments for use for travel through air and sea ports of entry. The August 9, 2010 interim final rule established the fee for ESTA. This document addresses comments received in response to both rules and some operational modifications affecting VWP applicants and travelers since the publication of the interim rules. DATES: This rule is effective on July 8, 2015.

(Posted 6/26/19) FOREWORD U.S. Customs and Border Protection’s (CBP) Global Entry program provides expedited processing for pre-approved, low-risk travelers upon arrival in the United States by utilizing kiosks for CBP processing. Through this program, CBP is making great strides in facilitating the movement of people in a more efficient manner. Global Entry helps to advance the CBP strategic goal of balancing legitimate trade and travel with security. Additionally, Global Entry is part of CBP’s effort to address the 9/11 Commission Report’s recommendation that, “[t]he Department of Homeland Security, properly supported by the Congress, should complete, as quickly as possible, a biometric entry-exit screening system, including a single system for speeding qualified travelers. It should be integrated with the system that provides benefits to foreigners seeking to stay in the United States.” 2 LAW ENFORCEMENT SENSITIVE AILA Doc. No. 19062666.

SPECIAL REPORT | NO. 175 JANUARY 3, 2017 Congress Must Re-Set Department of Homeland Security Priorities: American Lives Depend on It David Inserra Abstract: In 2014, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) had a total budget authority of $60.4 billion—which grew to $66.8 billion in 2016. This budget funds a diverse set of agencies that are responsible for a wide range of issues: counterterrorism, transportation security, immigration and border control, cybersecurity, and disaster response. Yet, DHS management of these issues is highly flawed, both in the finer details of its operations and in its broader priorities. Such failure has provoked a small chorus of critics to question the value of DHS as a whole, and wheth- er the U.S.
