Halt any CIA program inconsistent with the President's agenda

The document says “shouldWho acts: CIAHow: internal managementp. 209 in the PDF
What the document says

“If senior leadership finds any program or operation to be inconsistent with the President’s agenda, the Director should immediately halt that program or operation.”

Mandate for Leadership: The Conservative Promise, p. 209

The chapter asks that the Director and Deputy Director request briefings on all agency activities and presence overseas, on all controlled access programs and on existing covert action findings without exception, and meet all directorates and mission centers, before halting anything found inconsistent with the President's agenda.

What the document actually says

“If senior leadership finds any program or operation to be inconsistent with the President’s agenda, the Director should immediately halt that program or operation.”

Mandate for Leadership: The Conservative Promise, p. 209
That sentence, in plain words

Say a program does not match what the president wants. Then the Director should stop it at once.

What this is about

The agency runs many secret programs. New leaders would be briefed on all of them. If one does not match the president's aims, it would be stopped.

No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken. See what the tracker does not yet cover.

How to read this page

The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, and we check the page number against the book itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary, not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the quotation rather than replacing it.
