Gang Activity Reporting Act of 2023

The Gang Activity Reporting Act of 2023 requires federal agencies (including the Department of Justice, Department of Homeland Security, and FBI) to submit annual reports to Congress on gang activity. These reports must include specific data on gang membership trends over the past decade, methods gangs use to commit crimes, enforcement statistics (like arrests and firearm seizures), and agency initiatives for tracking and prosecuting gang-related activity. The first report is due 150 days after the bill's enactment, with annual reports required thereafter. The law aims to provide Congress with consistent, evidence-based data to inform policy decisions on gang activity. It does not create new enforcement powers but mandates standardized reporting from existing federal agencies.
