Security and Accountability for Every (SAFE) Port Act
The SAFE Port Act is a U.S. law designed to improve the security of ports and shipping operations. It aims to prevent terrorism and illegal activities by enhancing screening of cargo, ships, and personnel entering ports. The act promotes better coordination among federal agencies and international partners to detect threats early. It also sets standards for port security efforts and requires regular inspections. Overall, the SAFE Port Act helps ensure that goods and travelers move securely through ports, protecting national security without unduly disrupting commerce.
