Bill 119 hr 2116, also known as the Law Enforcement Support and Counter Transnational Repression Public Service Announcement Campaign Act, aims to amend the Homeland Security Act of 2002.

In addition to the public service announcement campaign, the bill also includes provisions for the development of training programs for law enforcement agencies to better equip them to address transnational repression.
