Summary
This bill amends the Homeland Security Act to require the Department of Homeland Security to conduct quality assurance reviews of its nominations to the terrorist watchlist and related terrorism databases before submission to the FBI and National Counterterrorism Center. The bill mandates annual audits of all U.S. persons on the watchlist and monthly random audits of all watchlist nominations to verify accuracy and continued eligibility. DHS must notify relevant agencies within 24 hours of identifying errors and request corrections or retractions, with escalation to FBI or NCTC leadership if corrections are not made within 30 days. The bill requires annual reporting to Congress on the number of identities referred for correction or retraction.
