senate 07/30/2025 - 119th Congress

We aim to empower State, local, and Tribal law enforcement to better investigate and prevent elder financial fraud, pig butchering scams, and other financial crimes by allowing federal grant funds to support specialized training, technology, and collaboration. This will also clarify how federal agencies can assist in using advanced tools like blockchain tracing to protect vulnerable communities.

Grant money’s flowing, but will states and tribes get the support they need, or just paperwork and promises?
