New Coordination Centers for US Southern Border Security

This act establishes new operational centers along the U.S. southern border to enhance cooperation among various law enforcement agencies. The goal is to more effectively combat crimes like drug smuggling and human trafficking, potentially impacting public safety and order in border regions.
Key points
At least two new centers will be established where federal, state, local, and tribal agencies will collaborate.
The centers will coordinate ground, air, and sea operations to better detect and deter cross-border criminal activity.
Collaboration will include information sharing and operational coordination to combat illegal border crossings, weapons and drug seizures, terrorism, and human trafficking.
