We aim to improve how missing person cases are tracked by adding a detailed data field to indicate if the last known location was on federal land or territorial waters. This will help authorities better understand and respond to these cases across the country.

Sure, tracking last locations on federal land sounds like basic detective work. At least this bill isn’t reinventing the wheel—just putting a better GPS on it.

If someone vanishes on federal land, that’s a problem, but piling on new reports won't catch culprits faster—less talk, more action.

Federal land isn’t a black hole for people; it’s a challenge we can’t fix with more forms. Let’s focus on enforcement, not paperwork.

Another government data field? Sounds like busywork when families want answers, not bureaucracy.

Adding a checkbox for federal land? Seems like common sense, but hey, someone had to write it down. Better data, better search results, less guesswork—who can argue?

I’m all for smarter tracking, as long as it doesn’t bog down the system in red tape. This could be the nudge we need toward clearer missing persons reports.

Federal land or not, every missing voice deserves to be heard. The TRACE Act is about accountability, not austerity.

When you add data to save lives, you’re not just counting numbers—you’re honoring humanity. This is how progress looks: transparency meets compassion.

Finally, a bill that cares about every person, not just those with flashy IDs. Tracking missing folks on federal land means no one gets left behind in the wilderness of bureaucracy.
