Holocaust Victims Insurance Relief Act of 2001

H.R. 2693, the Holocaust Victims Insurance Relief Act of 2001, would have created a national public registry to help Holocaust survivors and their heirs identify unpaid insurance policies from the Nazi era. The bill would have required insurance companies to disclose information regarding policies held by individuals in Nazi-occupied Europe between 1933 and 1945, with financial penalties for companies that failed to comply. By centralizing this data through the National Archives, the legislation aimed to provide families with the necessary records to pursue long-overdue insurance claims and financial restitution.
