What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

The Department of Justice currently administers several alert systems, under which DOJ works with law enforcement agencies, broadcasters, and others to disseminate information regarding certain cases involving endangered children, missing persons at risk, and veterans at risk. Under current law, to qualify as a “veteran at risk,” the missing person must be a veteran or an active duty member who has a physical or mental health condition that is related to his or her service. This bill removes the condition that the physical or mental health condition be related to his or her service.
