Abstract
The Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs led by Chairman Senator Ron Johnson produced a Majority Staff report that analyzes leaked national security information between January 20, 2017 and May 25, 2017. It highlights a surge in leaks during the Trump administration, stressing the need to restore balance and protect national security. The report underscores the importance of enabling the commander-in-chief to manage security, intelligence operations, and foreign relations without concerns about private meetings and deliberations being exposed to the public.
