FBI Law Enforcement Bulletin,The, April, 2007

In 2004, the Council of State Governments (CSG) and Eastern Kentucky University conducted a national survey of state law enforcement agencies to measure their changing roles in the post 9/11 era. Findings indicated that state police faced homeland security responsibilities while also shouldering new burdens due to shifting federal law enforcement priorities.

To find out if these changes hold true today, CSG conducted a national follow-up survey in June 2006 to explore this question and identify emerging terrorism-related changes and trends. Some key findings are state law enforcement agencies continue to play critical roles in homeland security; intelligence sharing and analysis remain a high priority; homeland security roles and responsibilities continue to evolve; and collaboration with federal counterparts remains a priority to states. This report is available online at http://csg-web.csg.org/pubs/Documents/Misc0506Terrorism.pdf.> Bulletin Reports is an edited collection of criminal justice studies, reports, and project findings.
