The problem here is, that isn't obvious. I just scoured the dept's website looking for confirmation that it is under the governor's authority; couldn't find it.
People read "Homeland Security" they think federal agency, not state.
You are so right.
I heard it over and over "Home Land Security" never mentioning it was the State Home Land Security.
I knew there was a difference but just by the way it was stated, I like most, thought it was the Feds.
