This bill would temporarily boost the Crime Victims Fund by adding money from certain False Claims Act cases—lawsuits about fraud against the federal government—through the end of fiscal year 2029. It sends leftover settlement or penalty dollars into the fund after two things are taken out: the whistleblower’s court-awarded share and the amount that repays the government for its losses. The goal is to keep victim services funded and more stable during these years.
