On Wednesday, prior to the shooting in Chattanooga blamed on a Muslim, the House Homeland Security Committee voted in favor the Countering Violent Extremism (CVE) Act of 2015 (H.R. 2899).
The legislation will create an office within the Department of Homeland Security to address homegrown terrorism and will be allocated $10 million annually.
Pilot CVE programs have already been launched in Boston, Los Angeles and Minneapolis.
Rep. Michael McCaul, a Texas Republican and Homeland Security Committee chairman, sponsored the bill. According to The Washington Times, McCaul said something needs to be done to protect the United States from the growing number of Islamic State inspired-attacks against military facilities, law enforcement officers and Americans.
Congress claims the number of people facing prosecution for planning terror attacks in the United States has increased from 13 in 2014 to 61 in 2015.
