Nonprofit Security Grant Program Transparency Act

# Nonprofit Security Grant Program Transparency Act Summary **What the Bill Does** This bill would increase transparency and oversight of the Nonprofit Security Grant Program, which provides federal funding to help nonprofits—such as religious organizations, community centers, and other civic groups—improve their security systems and infrastructure. The legislation would likely require the Department of Homeland Security to publicly report more detailed information about how grant money is distributed, including which organizations receive funding, how much they receive, and how the funds are used. **Who It Affects** The bill would primarily affect nonprofits seeking security grants, the Department of Homeland Security (which administers the program), and the general public who would have greater access to information about federal spending.

Religious organizations, including houses of worship, would be among the main beneficiaries since they frequently apply for these grants. **Current Status** As of now, HR 7382 remains in committee and has not yet been voted on by the full House of Representatives. This means it has not advanced to become law and may require further discussion, amendments, or action before it could be considered for a vote.
