I commend the Department and its leadership for its commitment to financial management.” In 2012, Chairman Carper joined Senators Scott Brown (R-Mass.) and Ron Johnson (R- Wisc.) in seeing passage into law of the DHS Audit Requirement Target (DART) Act, which requires DHS to obtain and pass full audits for its financial statements. By continuing to earn this clean bill of financial health from an independent auditor, DHS continues to be in compliance with this law. The Department of Defense is the only large federal department that is unable to conduct a financial audit.	1	2026-03-30T12:14:52Z	2026-03-30T12:14:52Z
