Section 1. Establishment of a Center for Faith-Based and Community Initiatives at the Department of Homeland Security.

(a) The Secretary of Homeland Security (Secretary) shall establish within the Department of Homeland Security (Department) a Center for Faith-Based and Community Initiatives (Center).

Bush is putting Faith based groups within the DHS.

He may as well give Pat Robertson and James Dobson high level positions in the Department.
