Problem Space

You are the senior staff representative to Congresswoman Cosic. Recently Congresswoman Cosic received many letters and calls about the rise in crime after California passed Assembly Bill 109 and Propositions 47 and 57. The focus of the complaints concentrated on two themes. The first is police are not responding to the rise in crime. The second is the public was misled by Assembly Bill 109 and Propositions 47 and 57. Congresswoman Cosic intends to introduce legislation that will reform the effects of Assembly Bill 109 and Propositions 47 and 57.

She is aware that the Reducing Crime and Keeping California Safe Act of 2018 failed to make the November 2018 Ballot.

Congresswoman Cosic wants you to write her a briefing memorandum that establishes a working framework for new legislation that will go beyond the failed initiative of Reducing Crime and Keeping California Safe Act of 2018. The tentative working title for her legislation is called Real Safety for California.

Risk Assessment of the FBI’s Counterterrorism Efforts

In your article critique, identify the article premise and supporting points on whether or not the authors’ vulnerability analysis and risk assessment approaches of the FBI’s efforts reduced the terrorism risk enough to justify its cost over a period of time. If so, how? If not, why? The article mentions that the Transportation Security Administration body scanner technology costs about $1.2 billion but does not mention any technology that the FBI is spending its budget on. Do you think this was an oversight or intentional? What new technology is the FBI actually employing? The article also does not address how the FBI is using geographical information systems (GIS) in domestic terror risk assessment and vulnerability analysis. Quickly research how the FBI is using GIS; how could the authors incorporate this information into the article? In addition to the content in the article, discuss two additional technology related recommendations that could be integrated into the author’s findings.

The assignment must be at least 500 words in length. Adhere to APA Style when constructing this assignment, including in-text citations and references for all sources that are used. Note that no abstract is needed.
