ABSTRACT (MAXIMUM 200 WORDS) To meet best the needs posed by today's national security environment and constrained economy America's federal law enforcement sector must undergo legislative changes to coordinate investigations more effectively, foster a collaborative culture, and promote cost-effective practices. Four key federal law enforcement agencies from DOJ and DHS confront contemporary and formidable threats to America's security, however legislation is needed to improve their interagency efforts. In particular, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives; Drug Enforcement Administration; Federal Bureau of Investigations; and Immigration and Customs Enforcement all complement the national security model. U.S. government reform is not without precedence; for the evolution of unity in the Department of Defense spans several decades of its history and provides a framework to enhance unity of effort between DOJ and DHS. In order to modernize their administrations federal legislation among the DOJ and DHS agencies must comprise improvements to the following three areas: Organizational Capital, Human Capital, and Resource Capital.
