Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This bill would let the U.S. Attorney General pay rewards to people who give information about anyone who offers a bounty or other payment for harming or killing a federal law enforcement officer. Rewards could be paid for information that leads to an arrest or conviction, in any country, for offering such a bounty, or for conspiring or attempting to do so. Rewards could also be paid for information that helps prevent or stop such an act. The bill also renames the related chapter of federal law to include the offering of bounties.
