Law

This bill would allow the U.S. government to pay rewards to people who provide information about anyone offering money or 'bounties' to hurt or kill federal law enforcement officers.
The Attorney General would have the authority to give these awards if the tip leads to an arrest or conviction in any country, or if the information helps stop a planned attack before it happens.
The plan treats the act of offering money to harm officers with the same level of seriousness as information regarding terrorism or spying against the United States.
By offering these rewards, the government aims to discourage organized violence against police and encourage people to come forward with details about plots or financial offers aimed at harming officers.
