HR 6261 United States House · 118th Congress

Impact of Crime on Public Building Usage Act of 2023

This bill requires two reports to Congress about how crime impacts federal building usage. The Comptroller General must examine how rising crime, drug use, homelessness, and safety concerns affect in-person work, commuting choices, and office safety at federal buildings. The GSA Inspector General must report on the operational costs tied to crime and safety issues around these buildings. Both reports are due within one year of the bill's enactment. The bill itself does not change policies but mandates data collection on crime's effects.
