What this amendment would do

SA 5695, submitted by Mr. Blumenthal, aims to add a section to bill S. 2 that requires an investigation by the Inspector General of the Department of Justice.

The purpose of this amendment is to investigate allegations regarding:

  • The manipulation of Federal Bureau of Investigation arrest statistics.
  • The Federal Bureau of Investigation Most Wanted list.

The investigation would be funded by amounts from section 90007 of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (Public Law 119-21), which the Secretary of Homeland Security would transfer to the Inspector General of the Department of Justice upon request.
