Corporate Crime Database Act of 2023

The Corporate Crime Database Act of 2023 (S 3460) requires the Bureau of Justice Statistics to create a public online database tracking federal enforcement actions against corporations for violations of law. The database will include details about the business entity or individual involved, the specific offense (such as violations of federal statutes), the enforcing agency, and the outcome (like settlements or prosecutions). Federal agencies must submit this data within 180 days of the bill’s enactment, and the database must be published online within one year, updated regularly, and made searchable and downloadable. This affects federal agencies responsible for enforcement and provides the public with accessible information on corporate misconduct.
