Public Safety and Mental Health Reporting Act

This bill requires the U.S. Attorney General, in collaboration with the Department of Health and Human Services, to collect annual data on law enforcement interactions with people experiencing mental illness starting in 2026. It mandates standardized guidelines for gathering this data and strictly limits its use to anonymized research or statistics - prohibiting any information that could identify individuals. The Attorney General must publish an annual summary of the findings for Congress and the public. The data collection is authorized for fiscal years 2026 through 2036, using the definition of "mental illness" established in existing law (34 U.S.C. §10651(a)(7)).
