Plain-English Summary
The federal government would move its nuclear forensics and attribution work—the scientific analysis used to identify the source and origin of nuclear materials—from the Department of Homeland Security to the National Nuclear Security Administration, which is part of the Energy Department. This reorganization would consolidate nuclear expertise and investigation capabilities in one agency rather than splitting them between two departments. The change would primarily affect how federal agencies coordinate on nuclear security matters and investigate potential nuclear threats.
