Boosting Crime Victims Fund: Temporary Deposits from Government Fraud Recoveries.

This law aims to temporarily increase the money available in the Crime Victims Fund (CVF) until fiscal year 2029. The extra funds will come from penalties and settlements recovered in cases involving fraud against the government. This change ensures that victims of crime have access to more stable funding for essential services like counseling and financial aid.
Key points
Increased funding for the Crime Victims Fund, providing greater stability for programs that assist victims of crime.
New deposits are sourced from money recovered in government fraud cases, excluding payments to whistleblowers and direct government damage reimbursements.
