Congressional Border Security Assessment Act

HR 103, the Congressional Border Security Assessment Act, grants members of Congress and their staff access to Indian reservations bordering Mexico that include at least 50 contiguous miles of the U.S.-Mexico border. This access is specifically for gathering information to assess national security, public safety, and border security needs. The bill allows entry onto reservation roadways and easements but does not alter existing border security policies or funding. It directly affects tribal lands along the border and establishes a procedural mechanism for congressional oversight.
