      National security related issues dominate the news in current times, and national security related law and policies are often key components of the discussion. The text of law and key policies provides a solid foundation for analysis, discussion, and understanding. "Know the Law, Find the Way." Whatever your role in the national security field -- legal practitioner (government, corporate, private), judge, journalist, academia, legislator, or general public -- this updated compendium of national security related laws and policy documents presents you with an excellent primary source to review the legal landscape.

      The core focus of this publication continues to be the Constitution and the laws, executive orders, and policies governing the activities of the U.S. Intelligence Community in the national security enterprise that are most relevant in each year of publication. Under our Constitution, these operations will always be conducted in accord with, and subject to, the rule of law.

      “I’ve often noted that the US Intelligence Community has more lawyers than some of our foreign counterparts have intelligence officers. This thorough overhaul of the sourcebook provides those lawyers with the most authoritative, comprehensive, and up-to-date compendium of US law on intelligence ever. Mastery of this legal landscape ensures the men and women of the IC operate consistent with our US Constitution and shared values while using the full authorities granted under that law to protect the nation. I commend this volume to anyone needing to understand the full complexity of the law.”

      General Michael Hayden (USAF, Retired), former Director, Central Intelligence Agency; Director, National Security Agency; Principal Deputy Director of National Intelligence

      “The Sourcebook has proved to be an indispensable resource for any intelligence or national security professional. I kept it on my desk in government and in private practice and referred to it frequently when teaching law school.”

      Kenneth L. Wainstein, former Assistant Attorney General for National Security; Homeland Security Advisor; and General Counsel, Federal Bureau of Investigation

      "The U.S. Intelligence Community Law Sourcebook pulls together the most important laws, regulations, and policies that govern the Intelligence Community, and our national and homeland security. This edition is particularly worthy of space on every national security practitioner's desk, whether in Congress, the Executive Branch, or private practice."

      John B. Bellinger, III, former Legal Adviser, U.S. Department of State; and former Legal Adviser, National Security Council

      "Events in recent history continue to raise new and challenging national security and intelligence issues for which there are no easy answers. The Sourcebook provides a readily accessible compendium of positive authorities that shape important aspects of U.S. national security, and this year's recrafting has taken this important work to a new level in its potential to help government officials, practitioners, and academics in balancing national security, public safety, accountability, and civil liberties."

      Mary B. McCord, Visiting Professor of Law and Executive Director, Institute for Constitutional Advocacy and Protection, Georgetown Law, and former Acting Assistant Attorney General for National Security

      “The rule of law is the foundation for meeting the challenges posed by the evolving geopolitical and national security landscape. While our commitment to the rule of law remains constant, the laws themselves develop to deal with these challenges. This latest edition of The U.S. Intelligence Community Law Sourcebook is more than an updated collection of statutory texts—it's a carefully curated, organized, and contextualized volume of work that illustrates how the United States counters a wide array of evolving threats within a rule of law framework. The strength of the institutions that uphold our democracy depends upon the authorities showcased in this book; it is an invaluable resource for anyone who seeks to know them.”

      John C. Demers, former Assistant Attorney General for National Security

      “Transparency is a bedrock of a properly functioning democracy but is often especially difficult in the intelligence world. Since its inception, the Sourcebook has performed an important role in shining light on the critical legal underpinnings of some of our most sensitive capabilities, as well as the policy context that drives us to use and improve them. This edition continues the mission of helping to make intelligence authorities more accessible to lawyers, policymakers, academics, journalists, and students so we all can better understand and appreciate the metes and bounds of what the government can and cannot do under the law.”

      David Kris, former Assistant Attorney General for National Security
