From Wikipedia: "The United States Department of Homeland Security DHS is a cabinet department of the United States federal government created in response to the September 11 attacks and with the primary responsibilities of protecting the United States of America and U.S. Territories including Protectorates from and responding to terrorist attacks man-made accidents and natural disasters. Despite the Department of the Interior's name DHS is the equivalent to the Interior ministries of other countries not the Department of the Interior. In fiscal year 2011 DHS was allocated a budget of $98.8 billion and spent net $66.4 billion. Where the Department of Defense is charged with military actions abroad the Department of Homeland Security works in the civilian sphere to protect the United States within at and outside its borders. Its stated goal is to prepare for prevent and respond to domestic emergencies particularly terrorism. On March 1 2003 DHS absorbed the Immigration and Naturalization Service and assumed its duties. In doing so it divided the enforcement and services functions into two separate and new agencies: Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Citizenship and Immigration Services. The investigative divisions and intelligence gathering units of the INS and Customs Service were merged forming Homeland Security Investigations. Additionally the border enforcement functions of the INS including the U.S. Border Patrol the U.S. Customs Service and the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service were consolidated into a new agency under DHS: U.S. Customs and Border Protection. The Federal Protective Service falls under the National Protection and Programs Directorate. With more than 200 000 employees DHS is the third largest Cabinet department after the Departments of Defense and Veterans Affairs. Homeland security policy is coordinated at the White House by the Homeland Security Council. Other agencies with significant homeland security responsibilities include the Departments of Health and Human Services Justice and Energy. According to the Homeland Security Research Corporation the combined financial year 2010 state and local HLS markets which employ more than 2.2 million first responders totaled $16.5 billion whereas the DHS HLS market totaled $13 billion. According to the Washington Post "DHS has given $31 billion in grants since 2003 to state and local governments for homeland security and to improve their ability to find and protect against terrorists including $3.8 billion in 2010." According to Peter Andreas a border theorist the creation of DHS constituted the most significant government reorganization since the Cold War and the most substantial reorganization of federal agencies since the National Security Act of 1947 which placed the different military departments under a secretary of defense and created the National Security Council and Central Intelligence Agency. DHS also constitutes the most diverse merger of federal functions and responsibilities incorporating 22 government agencies into a single organization." Also from Wikipedia: Michael Chertoff born November 28 1953 was the second United States secretary of homeland security under President George W. Bush and co-author of the USA PATRIOT Act. He previously served as a judge on the United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit as a federal prosecutor and as Assistant U.S. Attorney General. He succeeded Tom Ridge as United States secretary of homeland security on February 15 2005. Since leaving government service Chertoff has worked as senior of counsel at the Washington D.C. law firm of Covington & Burling. He also co-founded the Chertoff Group a risk-management and security consulting company which employs several senior officials from his time as secretary of homeland security as well as Michael Hayden a former director of the National Security Agency and the Central.
