Ban on Security Clearances for Terrorist Sympathizers and Affiliates.
This bill tightens rules for granting and renewing security clearances within federal agencies. The main change automatically rejects applications from individuals who have publicly supported foreign terrorist organizations, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), or their affiliates, including Hamas and Hezbollah. This aims to enhance national security by eliminating risks in access to sensitive data.
Key points
Individuals who have publicly supported terrorist organizations or the IRGC will not be granted or renewed access to classified information (security clearance).
Federal agencies must undergo regular audits (at least every two years) to ensure they effectively screen applicants for ties to terrorism or hostile groups.
