Advanced Border Coordination Act of 2024

HR 10027, the Advanced Border Coordination Act of 2024, requires the Department of Homeland Security to establish at least two Joint Operations Centers along the southern U.S. border within six months of enactment. These centers will serve as unified hubs for federal, state, local, and tribal agencies to coordinate border operations, including deterring transnational crime, drug trafficking, human trafficking, and illegal crossings. Key provisions mandate centralized communication, personnel deployment tracking, and annual reporting to Congress on coordination effectiveness, resource use, and identified communication gaps. The bill directly affects border law enforcement agencies and aims to improve interagency collaboration on border security matters.
