June 16, 2013 – Present – DHS – Associate General Counsel
According to publicly available emails, Neal Swartz was part of the team working on the controversial Disinformation Governance Board in2022. Many Americans viewed the Board as a potential threat to free political speech, particularly given the existing climate of online censorship and alleged collaboration between government agencies and social media platforms. The Orwellian-sounding name of the Board only heightened these fears.
Neal Swartz was sent documents relating to the rollout of the “Disinformation Board” according to emails released pursuant to a FOIA request submitted by Americans for Prosperity:
The short-lived Disinformation Governance Board was as alarming as it sounds. For Swartz to have been involved in the planning of its rollout shows that he is seen by Biden Administration officials as “with the program.”

Neal Swartz liked a post on LinkedIn decrying DHS Secretary Mayorkas' impeachment as 'abuse of solemn constitutional authority'.
In 2023, Neal Swartz won a “Meritorious Rank Award” from President Biden. This is a clear indication that he’s ‘on the team.’ Further, Secretary Mayorkas made comments praising the award recipients’ “dedication to mission”.
“Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro N. Mayorkas recognized 30 members of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) workforce who received the 2023 Presidential Rank Award (PRA) for exceptional service.
“I am incredibly proud of the 30 DHS executives who have been selected to receive this year’s Presidential Rank Award. The award speaks to these senior executives’ extraordinary dedication to mission and exceptional work as public servants,” said Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas.”
“DHS employees selected by President Biden to receive the prestigious awards include FY2023 Meritorious Rank Recipients”
“The Meritorious Rank Award is presented to leaders for sustained accomplishments and is awarded to only five percent of career SES members and Senior-Level (SL) employees and Scientific and Professional (ST) corps…”

Simply put, Neal Swartz would not receive this award if he was not on board with the disastrous immigration agenda of the Biden Administration.
