EAGLES Act of 2025

# EAGLES Act of 2025 - Plain Language Summary The EAGLES Act would renew and expand the National Threat Assessment Center (NTAC), a division of the U.S. Secret Service that works to prevent violence. Currently operating under temporary authorization, this bill would extend NTAC's funding and authority through 2030. More significantly, it would broaden NTAC's mission beyond its current focus to include new efforts aimed at preventing targeted violence in schools and other settings. The bill affects federal law enforcement agencies, schools, and potentially the general public by enhancing resources dedicated to identifying and intervening in situations that could lead to targeted violence.

Key provisions include establishing a national school violence prevention program and expanding NTAC's analytical and investigative capabilities. The bill also addresses related administrative matters like employee hiring, training, and compensation for the center's staff. **Current Status:** The bill is currently in committee and has not yet been voted on by the full Senate. Senator Chuck Grassley (R-IA) introduced it in the 119th Congress.
