No Bounties on Badges Act

HR 7114, the "No Bounties on Badges Act," would amend federal law to allow the Attorney General to offer rewards for information leading to the arrest or conviction of individuals who harm, kill, or conspire to harm or kill U.S. federal law enforcement officers. The bill creates a new provision authorizing monetary rewards for tips that result in arrests, convictions, or prevention of attacks against officers, including in foreign countries. This policy change directly affects federal law enforcement officers by expanding reward mechanisms for information about threats against them, and it grants the Attorney General new authority under Title 18. The bill does not prohibit bounties but instead establishes a formal reward program for information related to violence against officers.
