34 U.S.C. § 30507 — Jabara-Heyer NO HATE Act

**(a) Short title** This section may be cited as the “Khalid Jabara and Heather Heyer National Opposition to Hate, Assault, and Threats to Equality Act of 2021” or the “Jabara-Heyer NO HATE Act”. **(b) Findings** Congress finds the following: (1) The incidence of violence known as hate crimes, or crimes motivated by bias, poses a serious national problem. (2) According to data obtained by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the incidence of such violence increased in 2019, the most recent year for which data is available. (3) In 1990, Congress enacted the Hate Crime Statistics Act (Public Law 101–275; [28 U.S.C. 534](https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title28-section534&num=0&edition=prelim) note) 11 See References in Text note below. to provide the Federal Government, law enforcement agencies, and the public with data regarding the incidence of hate crime. The Hate Crime Statistics Act and the Matthew Shepard and James Byrd, Jr. Hate Crimes Prevention Act (division E of Public Law 111–84; 123 Stat. 2835) 1 have enabled Federal authorities to understand and, where appropriate, investigate and prosecute hate crimes. (4) A more complete understanding of the national problem posed by hate crime is in the public interest and supports the Federal interest in eradicating bias-motivated violence referenced in [section 249(b)(1)(C) of title 18](https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title18-section249/b/1/C&num=0&edition=prelim). (5) However, a complete understanding of the national problem posed by hate crimes is hindered by incomplete data from Federal, State, and local jurisdictions through the Uniform Crime Reports program authorized under [section 534 of title 28](https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-p
