The president's agenda on homeland security

Prevent Nuclear Terrorism

"Strengthen Nuclear Risk Reduction Work at Defense, State, and Energy Departments: Expand our foreign service, and develop the capacity of our civilian aid workers to work alongside the military. Thwarting terrorist networks requires international partnerships in military, intelligence, law enforcement, financial transactions, border controls, and transportation security."

Protect Our Information Networks

"Develop a Cyber Crime Strategy to Minimize the Opportunities for Criminal Profit: Shut down the mechanisms used to transmit criminal profits by shutting down untraceable Internet payment schemes. Initiate a grant and training program to provide federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies the tools they need to detect and prosecute cyber crime."

Protect Critical Infrastructure

"Improve Airline Security: Redouble our efforts to adequately address the threats our nation continues to face from airplane-based terrorism."

"Safeguard Public Transportation: Work to protect the public transportation systems Americans use to get to work, school and beyond every day."
