Summary

Not Invisible Act of 2019 This bill increases the coordination of efforts to reduce violent crime within Indian lands and against Indians. Specifically, the Department of the Interior must designate an official within the Bureau of Indian Affairs to coordinate prevention efforts, grants, and programs related to missing Indians and the murder and human trafficking of Indians. In addition, Interior and the Department of Justice (DOJ) must (1) establish an advisory committee on violent crime within Indian lands and against Indians, and (2) submit a written response to the recommendations developed by the advisory committee. The advisory committee must make recommendations to Interior and DOJ on actions to combat violent crime against Indians and within Indian lands, including strategies for identifying, reporting, and responding to instances of missing persons, murder, and human trafficking; and develop best practices for tribes and law enforcement officials in close proximity to Indian lands to follow, including practices to address any gaps in services for Indian victims.
