Summary

By March 23, 2020, and every year after that, the Attorney General must send a report to the Judiciary and Appropriations Committees of both the Senate and the House about the Missing Americans Alert Program (as changed by subsection (a)). The report must say how many people benefited — for example how many had less unsafe wandering, how many were trained, and an estimate of people affected; how many State, local, and tribal law enforcement and public safety agencies applied for and got funding, and of those, how many used the money for training versus for setting up or running location‑tracking technology; which companies’ tracking technology was used and the city and State of each company’s headquarters and local offices; which nonprofit partners were used, their city and State locations, and the results of those partnerships; how many missing children with autism or other developmental disabilities who wander, and how many missing adults with Alzheimer’s, were served and went missing and the outcome of each search; and any recommendations to improve the program.
