Better Federal Building Security: Oversight of Contract Guards and Shift Tracking.
This law aims to increase security in federal buildings, such as offices and courthouses, by tightening oversight of private security contractors. It mandates regular, covert security testing and requires immediate corrective training for guards who fail these tests. Additionally, the system for tracking personnel presence will be modernized to ensure faster communication about staffing shortages to building occupants.
