Boosting Local Police Efforts Against Foreign Repression and Terrorism Threats.
This law aims to strengthen the ability of state and local law enforcement to identify and combat foreign government actions intended to intimidate or silence individuals residing in the U.S. Citizens and communities targeted by foreign repression will gain better access to personal safety training and victim support resources. The changes are designed to protect fundamental rights like freedom of speech and assembly from foreign interference while safeguarding civil rights and liberties.
Key points
Local and state police will receive specialized training to better recognize and respond to instances of foreign surveillance and intimidation (transnational repression).
New community awareness programs will teach targeted individuals how to protect themselves against transnational repression, both physically and online.
Victims of foreign repression will be guaranteed prompt access to support and assistance, ensuring the protection of their civil rights and privacy.
