A formal position or approval by the Board: Supporting United States House of Representatives Bill 8426, the Crime Survivor Support and Stability Act of 2026, introduced by Representatives Lateefah Simon and Emilia Sykes, which would direct states to enumerate and protect survivor rights, establish a federal grant program for direct cash assistance to survivors of violence through community-based organizations, and allow state-level victim needs surveys to strengthen the evidence base for future federal investments. In short: a symbolic stance, not a binding law.
