This report passed the Senate just last night before midnight by a vote of 858. When H.R. 1 is law. Mr. Speaker. Homeland Security grants will finally be allocated based on risk. Targeted communities will get the Federal help they so richly deserve. First responders will have interoperable communications. When H.R. 1 is law. information necessary to uncover terrorist plots will be exchanged between Federal and local law enforcement. Wouldbe terrorists will not be able to exploit the Visa Waiver Program. Privacy and civil liberties will be central in how we approach homeland security. Our rail. mass transit and aviation systems will be more secure.
