Congressional Counter-Terrorism Caucus
About the Caucus
The Congressional Counter-Terrorism Caucus serves as the leading bipartisan voice in Congress for pragmatic approaches to tackling extremism and radicalization. It meets regularly with the goal of developing and adopting a bipartisan framework to counter domestic terrorism and draws upon expertise from across the government, public policy institutions, and community organizations.
The Caucus is supported by George Washington University’s Program on Extremism, which provides non-partisan analysis on issues related to violent and non-violent extremism. Through reports, briefings, and academic inquiries, the Program aims to develop pragmatic policy solutions to issues of extremism in the United States that resonate with policymakers, civic leaders, and the general public.
