This bill proposes creating a National Fraud Enforcement Division within the U.S. Department of Justice, under the Attorney General’s authority. The division would be led by an Assistant Attorney General, appointed by the President and designated for national fraud enforcement. Its responsibilities include coordinating large-scale fraud cases across states and federal agencies, guiding local federal prosecutors, and setting national priorities for combating fraud. The bill also amends existing law so the division and its officials are subject to federal prohibitions on political activity, helping maintain impartial enforcement.
