Full Analysis
HR9966, introduced on July 27, 2026, by Rep. Joe Neguse (D-CO) with cosponsor Rep. Don Bacon (R-NE), amends the Homeland Security Act of 2002 to clarify certain requirements relating to the Nonprofit Security Grant Program (NSGP). The NSGP provides grants to nonprofit organizations for security enhancements against terrorist attacks. The bill has been referred to the Committees on Transportation and Infrastructure and Homeland Security. As a clarification measure, it does not change funding levels or eligibility criteria. The legislative process is in its earliest stage—committee referral—with no hearings or markups scheduled. Without new appropriations or program expansion, the bill does not create revenue opportunities for any specific company. The bipartisan sponsorship suggests potential for eventual passage, but the impact on markets is negligible.
