109TH CONGRESS 

2D SESSION S. 3989 

To establish a Homeland Security and Neighborhood Safety Trust Fund 

and refocus Federal priorities toward securing the Homeland, and for 

other purposes. 

IN THE SENATE OF THE UNITED STATES 

SEPTEMBER 28, 2006 

Mr. BIDEN introduced the following bill; which was read twice and referred 

to the Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs 

A BILL 

To establish a Homeland Security and Neighborhood Safety 

Trust Fund and refocus Federal priorities toward securing the Homeland, and for other purposes. 

1 Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representa2 tives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, 

3 SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE. 

4 This Act may be cited as the ‘‘Homeland Security 

5 Trust Fund Act of 2006’’. 

6 SEC. 2. FINDINGS. 

7 The Congress finds the following:

1 tacks Upon the United States (in this section re2 ferred to as the ‘‘Commission’’), was established 

3 under title VI of Public Law 107–306 to prepare a 

4 full and complete account of the circumstances sur5 rounding the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, 

6 including preparedness for and the immediate re7 sponse to the attacks. 

8 (2) The Commission was also tasked with pro9 viding recommendations designed to guard against 

10 future attacks against the United States. 

11 (3) The Commission held 12 public hearings to 

12 offer a public dialogue about the Commission’s goals 

13 and priorities, sought to learn about work already 

14 completed, and the state of current knowledge, all in 

15 order to identify the most important issues and 

16 questions requiring further investigation. 

17 (4) This Commission was widely praised for its 

18 thorough investigation and the bi-partisan nature of 

19 its proceedings. 

20 (5) On July 22, 2004, the Commission released 

21 its final report that set out the events leading to the 

22 attacks on September 11th, a chilling minute-by23 minute account of that tragic day, and, more impor24 tantly, issued 41 recommendations to better prepare

•S 3989 IS

1 the United States to protect against future terrorist 

2 attacks. 

3 (6) While the Commission was officially dis4 solved, the Commissioners stayed together to create 

5 the 9/11 Public Discourse Project in order to push 

6 for the implementation of those recommendations. 

7 (7) On December 5, 2005, the Commissioners 

8 released a report card evaluating the progress in im9 plementing those recommendations. 

10 (8) The Commissioners issued very few A’s and 

11 B’s and issued 12 D’s and 5 failing grades. 

12 (9) The failures identified by the Commis13 sioners’ report card were across the board, ranging 

14 from transportation security, to infrastructure pro15 tection and government reform. 

16 (10) Specifically, the Commissioners stated that 

17 ‘‘few improvements have been made to the existing 

18 passenger screening system since right after 9/11. 

19 The completion of the testing phase of TSA’s pre20 screening program for airline passengers has been 

21 delayed. A new system, utilizing all names on the 

22 consolidated terrorist watch list, is therefore not yet 

23 in operation.’’. 

24 (11) The Commissioners also found that 

25 ‘‘. . . No risk and vulnerability assessments actually

•S 3989 IS

1 made; no national priorities established; no rec2 ommendations made on allocation of scarce re3 sources. . . . It is time that we stop talking about 

4 setting priorities and actually set some.’’. 

5 (12) The Commission issued a grade of D on 

6 checked bag and cargo screening measures, stating 

7 that ‘‘improvements have not been made by the Con8 gress or the administration. Progress on implemen9 tation of in-line screening has been slow. The main 

10 impediment is inadequate funding.’’. 

11 (13) With regard to information sharing and 

12 technology, the Commission noted that ‘‘there has 

13 been no systematic diplomatic efforts to share ter14 rorist watch lists, nor has Congress taken a leader15 ship role in passport security . . .’’ and that ‘‘there 

16 remain many complaints about lack of information 

17 sharing between federal authorities and state and 

18 local level officials.’’. 

19 (14) The Administration has failed to focus on 

20 prevention here at home by abandoning our first line 

21 of defense against terrorism—local law enforcement. 

22 (15) In the President’s FY 2006 budget re23 quest, the President requested a cut of over 

24 $2,000,000,000 in guaranteed assistance to law en25 forcement.

1 (16) According to the International Association 

2 of Chiefs of Police, this decision represents a fun3 damentally flawed view of what is needed to prevent 

4 domestic terror attacks. 

5 (17) The Council on Foreign Relations released 

6 a report entitled, ‘‘Emergency First Responders: 

7 Drastically Underfunded, Dangerously Unprepared’’, 

8 in which the Council found that ‘‘America’s local 

9 emergency responders will always be the first to con10 front a terrorist incident and will play the central 

11 role in managing its immediate consequences. Their 

12 efforts in the first minutes and hours following an 

13 attack will be critical to saving lives, establishing 

14 order, and preventing mass panic. The United 

15 States has both a responsibility and a critical need 

16 to provide them with the equipment, training, and 

17 other resources necessary to do their jobs safely and 

18 effectively.’’. 

19 (18) The Council further concluded that many 

20 State and local emergency responders, including po21 lice officers and firefighters, lack the equipment and 

22 training needed to respond effectively to a terrorist 

23 attack involving weapons of mass destruction. 

24 (19) Current first responder funding must be

1 rorism units and assist such agencies to integrate 

2 community policing models with counter-terror ef3 forts. 

4 (20) First responders still do not have adequate 

5 spectrum to communicate during an emergency. 

6 Congress finally passed legislation forcing the net7 works to turn over spectrum, but the date was set 

8 for February 2008. This is unacceptable, this spec9 trum should be turned over immediately. 

10 (21) The Federal Government has a responsi11 bility to ensure that the people of the United States 

12 are protected to the greatest possible extent against 

13 a terrorist attack, especially an attack that utilizes 

14 nuclear, chemical, biological, or radiological weapons, 

15 and consequently, the Federal Government has a 

16 critical responsibility to address the equipment, 

17 training, and other needs of State and local first re18 sponders. 

19 (22) To echo the sentiments of the National 

20 Commission on Terrorist Attacks upon the United 

21 States, ‘‘it is time that we stop talking about setting 

22 priorities and actually set some.’’.

1 resents less than 1 year of President Bush’s tax cuts 

2 for millionaires. 

3 (24) By investing 1 year of the tax cuts for mil4 lionaires into a trust fund to be invested over the 

5 next 5 years, the Federal Government can imple6 ment the Commission’s recommendations and make 

7 great strides towards making our Nation safer. 

8 (25) The Americans making more than 

9 $1,000,000 understand that our country changed 

10 after 9/11, yet they have not been asked to sacrifice 

11 for the good of the Nation. 

12 (26) In this Act, we call on the patriotism of 

13 such Americans by revoking 1 year of their tax cut 

14 and investing the resulting revenues in the security 

15 of our neighbors and families.
