US Senator Introduces Clearance Reform Bill

U.S. Senator Daniel Akaka of Hawaii, who heads a Senate subcommittee on government management and the federal workforce, has introduced S. 2834, a bill to establish the Security Clearance and Suitability Performance Accountability Council.

The Council would oversee clearance reform efforts and, within 90 days of its creation, issue a “strategic plan” identifying problems in the security clearance process and efforts thus far to correct them.
