SEC. 505. ANNUAL REPORTS ON DOMESTIC ACTIVITIES OF INTELLIGENCE COMMUNITY. (a) Sense of Congress.—It is the sense of Congress that— (1) the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Department of Homeland Security conduct vital work in enforcing the rule of law and safeguarding the people of the United States from harm; (2) the Intelligence Reform and Terrorism Prevention Act of 2004 (Public Law 108-458; 118 Stat. 3638) sought to facilitate greater information sharing between law enforcement and intelligence communities for the purpose of thwarting attacks on the homeland from international terrorist organizations; (3) National Intelligence Program funds should be expended only in support of intelligence activities with a foreign nexus, consistent with the definition of “intelligence” provided by Congress in section 3 of the National Security Act of 1947 (50 U.S.C. 3003); and (4) the intelligence community should not engage in the collection, assessment, or analysis of information that pertains exclusively to United States persons absent a foreign nexus.
