What this amendment would do

The amendment is cited as the Nicholas Douglas Quets Border Travel Safety Act. Its purpose is to establish a program to install and maintain warning signage informing travelers of dangerous areas or routes near the southern border of the United States that have been identified in relevant Department of State Travel Advisories.

The amendment aims to change or add to the bill by requiring the Secretary of Homeland Security, acting through the Commissioner of U.S. Customs and Border Protection and in consultation with the Secretary of State and the Administrator of the General Services Administration, to place clear and visible warning signage at land ports of entry along the United States international boundary with Mexico, on appropriate roadways and routes approaching and immediately adjacent to such ports of entry, and at additional appropriate locations to improve traveler awareness of safety or security risks due to criminal activity, violence, kidnapping, or other threats.
