Summary
The TRACE Act, which has passed the Senate and is now being considered by the House, would require the National Institute of Justice to enhance the National Missing and Unidentified Persons System (NamUs) by adding a new data field. This field would record whether a missing person's last known location was on federal land or in the territorial waters of the United States.
