Issue: Border Security
SIA Position:
Modern security technologies are essential to achieving operational control of U.S. borders and ports of entry, from vetting travelers to detecting breaches of physical barriers and promoting a rapid response to border incursions.
We support policies ensuring such technologies are deployed to their fullest potential and continued funding for essential grant programs such as the Homeland Security Grant Program and the Nonprofit Security Grant Program that allow the federal government to continue making investments in critical capabilities to meet security requirements.
