The Improving Reporting to Prevent Hate Act of 2026 aims to enhance the reporting of hate crimes by local governments in the United States. The main objective is to ensure that jurisdictions accurately report hate crime statistics to the federal government, thereby improving data collection and awareness of hate crimes across the country. Key provisions of the Act include a requirement for the Attorney General to evaluate whether local jurisdictions are credibly reporting hate crimes. This evaluation must be completed within three years of the law's enactment.
