Border surveillance money may buy only autonomous systems
What the document says“None of the funds made available for Border Security Assets and Infrastructure under the heading ``U.S. Customs and Border Protection--Procurement, Construction, and Improvements'' in this Act or prior appropriations Acts shall be used for the procurement or deployment of surveillance systems that are not autonomous, as such term is defined in section 90004 of Public Law 119-21.”
Section 207. Money for border security assets and infrastructure, in this Act or an earlier one, may not buy or deploy a surveillance system that is not autonomous. The term autonomous is defined in section 90004 of Public Law 119-21, which is not indexed here.
What the document actually says“None of the funds made available for Border Security Assets and Infrastructure under the heading ``U.S. Customs and Border Protection--Procurement, Construction, and Improvements'' in this Act or prior appropriations Acts shall be used for the procurement or deployment of surveillance systems that are not autonomous, as such term is defined in section 90004 of Public Law 119-21.”
This money may not buy watch systems that are not autonomous. Another law says what that word means.
The word is set in a different law. That law is not indexed here. So this site does not say which systems pass.
No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.
