The Advanced Border Coordination Act of 2025 requires the Department of Homeland Security to establish a minimum of two Joint Operations Centers along the southern border of the United States within six months of enactment. These Centers are designed to function as unified coordination hubs, facilitating collaboration among various law enforcement entities, including federal, state, local, and tribal agencies. Their overarching goal is to enhance interagency cooperation for more effective border management and security. These Centers will provide centralized operational support for critical border-related matters, such as coordinating ground, air, and sea operations, and implementing communication strategies among participating agencies. A key focus will be deterring and detecting criminal activities, including those perpetrated by transnational criminal organizations, illegal border crossings, and trafficking of drugs, weapons, and humans, as well as terrorism. The bill also mandates robust information sharing between federal agencies and their state, local, and tribal counterparts, and requires annual reports to Congress detailing the Centers' operations, resources, and identified interoperability gaps.
