Bipartisan Bill Proposes Using Fraud Settlements to Boost Funding for Crime Victim Services
Stalled
No legislative action in over 90 days.
The bill redirects a portion of False Claims Act penalties—after the government is reimbursed for its losses and whistleblowers are paid—into the Crime Victims Fund through September 2030. Companies that defraud the government and pay penalties under the False Claims Act would see those penalty payments go to victim services rather than the general treasury. This doesn't change what businesses owe, but it does redirect where the money goes.
