Bill > S2322

This bill, the Customs Trade Partnership Against Terrorism (CTPAT) Pilot Program Act of 2021, requires the Secretary of Homeland Security to establish a pilot program to assess whether allowing non-asset-based and asset-based third-party logistics providers to participate in CTPAT, a voluntary supply chain security program, would enhance port security, combat terrorism, and prevent supply chain security breaches. The bill specifies the requirements for the pilot program, including the number of participating entities, the duration of the program, and the submission of a report on the findings and recommendations. Additionally, the bill requires the Comptroller General to submit a report assessing the effectiveness of CTPAT, including an analysis of security incidents in the cargo supply chain and the causes for the suspension or removal of entities from the program.
