Quote: “she was instructed to bend over so higher-ranking officers could see if her pants were transparent, which would have constituted a dress-code violation. Williams later filed a grievance and a discrimination claim …
Her actions were entirely above-board, legitimate, and admirable,” he said.”

The Strategic Enhancement of Counterintelligence and Unifying Reform Efforts (SECURE) Act was advanced as part of the FY2026 Intelligence Authorization Act by the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence. The legislation was drafted in response to concerns from lawmakers and security experts that the U.S. counterintelligence apparatus has become fragmented, highly siloed across multiple agencies, and overly reactive.

To address these structural issues, the SECURE Act proposes a fundamental overhaul of the U.S. counterintelligence enterprise. Here is how the legislation intends to restructure and unify the system:

Centralizing Leadership and Authority
Replacing the NCSC: The act proposes replacing the current National Counterintelligence and Security Center (NCSC)—which critics argue lacks the necessary coordinating power—with a newly empowered national counterintelligence center housed within the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI).
Creating a Single Mission Commander: The current U.S. system features overlapping responsibilities across agencies like the FBI, CIA, DIA, and NSA. The SECURE Act establishes a single empowered leader with the statutory authority to direct, coordinate, and deconflict counterintelligence operations across the entire federal government.
Elevating the Director’s Role: The new counterintelligence director would be granted greater authority to conduct activities and would serve as the principal adviser to the President regarding foreign espionage threats.

Shifting from Defensive to Offensive Operations
Redefining Counterintelligence in Law: The legislation explicitly changes the legal definition of counterintelligence. Instead of merely existing to “protect” against foreign spy threats, the updated mandate requires agencies to “deter, disrupt, investigate, and exploit” foreign intelligence operations.
Executing Offensive Tactics: The act mandates a proactive, offensive posture against foreign adversaries (with a heavy focus on China, Russia, Iran, North Korea, and Cuba). This includes setting the doctrine for offensive counterintelligence activities, deploying deception tactics, and aggressively neutralizing foreign spy networks.
Codifying a National Task Force: It establishes a permanent, interagency national counterintelligence task force to pool resources and intelligence from various security agencies, ensuring a unified strategic direction.

The primary intent of the SECURE Act is to move U.S. counterintelligence out of a fragmented, defensive support role and into a highly integrated, proactive force capable of neutralizing foreign espionage before it compromises national security.
