SAFE Cities Act: Identifying Jurisdictions Failing to Address Violence

This act aims to identify and publicly list cities or states that fail to take reasonable steps to stop violence and property destruction. These listed areas may face restrictions on receiving federal grants, potentially impacting local services and projects funded by the government.
Key points
The Department of Justice will create and regularly update a list of jurisdictions deemed to be 'anarchist jurisdictions'.
Jurisdictions on this list may have their eligibility for federal grants restricted or disfavored.
Criteria for identification include hindering law enforcement, defunding police, or refusing federal assistance.
