U.S. Customs and Border Protection

• The bill wanted to appropriate funds for the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to modernize technology, take action concerning forced child labor and increase efforts with protective boarder fencing and “air and marine interdiction.”
  
  

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement

• Funds were intended for the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to reimburse other federal agencies for expenses incurred transporting illegal residents to their country of origin. The bill also required agencies to prioritize deporting aliens who have committed crimes after evaluating that person’s risk level.
  
  

Transportation, Secret Service and the Coast Guard

• The Coast Guard was a candidate for increased funds even as the bill asked for the halting of funds for the Integrated Deepwater Systems Program designed to replace the Guard’s equipment until that program was reviewed.
  
  

Airport Safety

• The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) and Secret Service would have received funds for general improvements. The bill wanted to halt money used to go forth with the Secure Flight prescreening program until it had been appropriately tested and decreed that testing should not delay flights unless a passenger name matched one on the government watch list. The bill allowed for new airport screening technology to be researched and developed and a program devised to make sure legal aliens applying for aircraft licenses were not a risk.
  
  

Other Groups

• Some other groups with proposed funding increases were the National Protection and Programs Directorate, Visitors and Immigrant Status Technology Project and Domestic Nuclear Detection Office.
