Homeland Security Act of 2002
"Homeland Security Act of 2002" is a legal and legislative document prepared by the U.S. Government Printing Office, reflecting United States legislation from the early 21st century. The text specifically provides a comprehensive account of the Homeland Security Act as amended through 2008, detailing the frameworks, regulations, and responsibilities established within the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) aimed at securing the nation against terrorism and natural disasters. The opening of this legislative
compilation lays out its purpose as a reference for the Act, outlining key amendments and naming various congressional committee members involved in its preparation. It includes a detailed table of contents that breaks down the Act into titles and subtitles, such as information analysis, emergency management, and provisions for the facilitation of homeland security information sharing. Importantly, the beginning establishes the framework for understanding the Department's mission and the delegation of functions among various officers, which are critical for interpreting the comprehensive provisions included in the subsequent sections.
