The Intelligence Reform and Terrorism Prevention Act Written Analysis

The Intelligence Reform and Terrorism Prevention Act was signed by President George Bush in December of 2004.  The motive for the Act was the attack on the United States on 9/11 where the sharing of intelligence among law enforcement was found to be lacking in the U.S.

The Act’s intent was to unify the intelligence and law enforcement agencies of the United States and mandated the creation of an Information Sharing Environment, commonly known as the “ISE.”
