Export Controls Enforcement Improvement Act of 2024

The Export Controls Enforcement Improvement Act of 2024 establishes a new Export Enforcement Coordination Center within the Department of Homeland Security to improve federal coordination on export control enforcement. The Center will unite 9 federal agencies - including State, Defense, Commerce, and Justice - to resolve conflicts in investigations, share intelligence, and track enforcement data, with specific focus on preventing illegal exports of sensitive technologies (like semiconductors, AI, and quantum tech) to countries including China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea. It requires the Center to develop best practices for combating transshipment/diversion risks and issue two reports to Congress on foreign law enforcement postings and hosting international officials. The bill authorizes $25 million for the Center’s fiscal year 2025 operations.
