Title: Tenth anniversary report card
Description: The 9/11 Commission Report, issued in July 2004, made 41 recommendations for keeping our country safe. The Bipartisan Policy Center report evaluates where we are in national security reform and what we have yet to achieve. The report card evaluates each agency or branch of the government that has the primary responsibility over the nine major unfinished 9/11 Commission Recommendations: Unity of Command and Effort, Radio Spectrum and Interoperability, Civil Liberties and Executive Power, Congressional Reform, Director of National Intelligence, Transportation Security, Biometric Entry-Exit Screening System, Standardize Secure Identifications, and Develop Coalition Standards for Terrorist Detention. The report concludes: The terrorist threat will be with us far into the future, demanding that we be ever vigilant. Changing circumstances require that we regularly reassess our priorities and expenditures to determine what is needed to defend our country and people.
