This bill proposes to amend the James M. Inhofe National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2023, establishing a tiered funding system to incentivize states to adopt comprehensive protections for sexual assault survivors. States will receive increased federal grants based on whether they have laws, regulations, practices, or policies that provide survivors with rights equivalent or substantially similar to those outlined in 18 U.S.C. 3772. The funding is divided into three tiers: 60% for states with explicit laws, 25% for states with a combination of provisions, and 15% for states with substantially similar rights, with each state eligible for only one tier. Furthermore, the bill strengthens survivor protections by requiring the preservation of sexual assault evidence kits for a minimum of 20 years , removing previous limitations tied to statutes of limitations. It also simplifies the process for survivors to request notification regarding evidence kit disposal or further preservation by allowing non-written requests.
