President's Intelligence Oversight Board

This executive order establishes the President's Intelligence Oversight Board (PIOB), a three-member body within the White House Office tasked with monitoring the legality of U.S. intelligence activities. The Board reports directly to the President on potential violations of law, forwards concerns to the Attorney General, reviews agency guidelines and inspector general procedures, and investigates matters as needed. Members are unpaid outside citizens appointed by the President, with full-time staff and security clearance requirements.
