Plain-English Summary

This bill would require federal law enforcement agencies to systematically track and report data on crimes committed in the United States, likely to give Congress and the public better information about crime trends and patterns. The data collection would help policymakers understand which types of crimes are increasing or decreasing and where they're happening, potentially informing decisions about how to allocate law enforcement resources and funding. The bill has been sent to the Judiciary Committee for review.
