EAGLES Act of 2023

S 411, the EAGLES Act of 2023, reauthorizes and expands the National Threat Assessment Center (NTAC) within the U.S. Secret Service to prevent targeted violence, particularly in schools. The bill requires the NTAC to provide training, research, and consultation on threat assessment to schools, law enforcement, and mental health professionals, with specific mandates to hire staff specializing in child psychology and school threat assessment. It directs the Center to develop evidence-based programs, track training participation by state, and report annually to Congress on implementation. The bill uses unobligated DHS coronavirus funds for this purpose and explicitly prohibits using these funds for firearm training.
