Rep. Stevens’s letter follows recent reports that CP3 has been drastically downsized, its focus on countering violent extremism scaled back, and is currently being led by an individual with extremely limited professional experience in counterterrorism or homeland security.
In the letter, Rep. Stevens demands answers to a series of oversight questions, including:
Staffing and Organizational Changes
Appointment of Thomas Fugate
Resource Reallocation and Program Shifts
Strategic Response to Rising Political Violence
The letter cites the recent rise of political violence and the urgent need for a strong federal prevention strategy.
Rep. Stevens has requested written responses from DHS no later than July 30, 2025. She remains committed to aggressive oversight and ensuring that DHS meets its obligations to protect the American people from extremist violence.
