SEC. 2. FINDINGS.
Congress finds the following:
(1) Only 22 State sex offender registries collect
and maintain DNA samples as a part of registra-
tion.
(2) The single age with the greatest proportion
of sexual assault victims reported to law enforcement
was age 14.
(3) There were more victims of sexual assault
between 3 and 17 than in any individual age group
over age 17, and more victims age 2 than in any age
group over 40.
(4) Children like 5-year-old Samantha Runnion
of California, who was abducted, sexually violated,
and murdered, are most likely to be victims of sexual
assault, with over one-third of all sexual assaults in-
volving a victim who was under the age of 12.
(5) One of every seven victims of sexual assault
is under the age of 6.
(6) Over a four-to-five year period, 13.4 percent
of sex offenders recidivated with another sexual of-
fense.
(7) Murder is the only major cause of childhood
deaths that has increased over the past three dec-
ades.
(8) Between 300,000 and 400,000 children are
victims of some type of sexual abuse or exploitation
every year.
(9) More attention should be given to seeking
solutions to violence against children.

tion against other DNA information in the database.
(b) AUTHORIZATION
OF APPROPRIATIONS.—There
are authorized to be appropriated $500,000 to establish
the database required by subsection (a).
SEC. 4. INCENTIVE GRANTS.
(a) PROGRAM AUTHORIZED.—From amounts made
available to carry out this section, the Attorney General
shall make grants to each State that has in effect one or
more programs that decrease the rate of recidivism among
violent predators against children, for use by the State to
implement improvements to such programs.
(b) AUTHORIZATION
OF APPROPRIATIONS.—There
are authorized to be appropriated to carry out this section
such sums as may be necessary.

CONSEQUENCES 
FOR 
VIOLENT 
PREDATORS
AGAINST CHILDREN.
Notwithstanding any other provision of law, if a per-
son who is a violent predator against children commits a
crime that would, in and of itself, establish that person
as a violent predator against children, the sentence im-
posed on that person for that crime shall, without regard
to any mitigating circumstance that would otherwise apply
at sentencing, be the maximum authorized by law.
SEC. 6. DEFINITION.
As used in this Act, the term ‘‘violent predator
against children’’ means a person who commits a crime
of violence (including a sex crime) against the person of
an individual who has not attained the age of 18 years.
