AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill would require the Director of the Congressional Research Service to report on whether people covered by the January 20, 2025 presidential proclamation on January 6, 2021 Capitol offenses have committed new crimes. The first report would be due within 60 days of the bill becoming law, with new reports every 180 days after that. Each report would go to certain House and Senate committees and be posted on the Library of Congress website. Reports would list everyone pardoned, given a shorter sentence, or whose pending charges were dropped under the proclamation, along with any of them arrested, charged, or convicted of a crime since January 20, 2025, and any involved in a police use-of-force encounter.
