SB 780 establishes a Homeland Security Division within the Texas Department of Public Safety to coordinate and enhance statewide security efforts. The division will oversee multi-agency, multi-jurisdictional, and public-private initiatives to strengthen state security, including border security operations and critical infrastructure protection. It will also handle intelligence collection, analysis, and dissemination, along with managing surveillance operations, such as Operation Drawbridge. The division will develop strategic homeland security plans, coordinate risk assessments, and facilitate federal and state compliance on security matters. The bill centralizes the management and operations of existing Border Security Operations Centers under the new division. Additionally, the division will set priorities for homeland security-related grant programs and maintain a publicly accessible repository of its non-confidential reports and assessments.
