This bill would establish a new National Auto Theft Bureau within the Department of Justice to combat rising car theft across the country. The bureau would serve as a central information hub, allowing federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies to share real-time data about auto thefts and coordinate their efforts more effectively. The bureau would also provide training, resources, and recommendations to law enforcement agencies and private industry on how to prevent and investigate vehicle thefts. Additionally, the bill authorizes a pilot program to help state and local police departments improve their auto theft information collection and sharing capabilities. Congress would provide up to ten million dollars in funding for fiscal year 2025 to support the pilot program.
