The Carla Walker Act establishes federal grant programs to fund forensic genetic genealogy DNA analysis and equipment purchases by state and local law enforcement agencies, prosecutors, medical examiners, and coroners. Eligible entities may use grants to conduct whole genome sequencing on DNA samples that failed to produce leads through standard databases, analyze unidentified human remains, or purchase forensic equipment for genetic genealogy analysis. The bill authorizes $5 million annually for fiscal years 2024–2028 for DNA analysis grants and an additional $5 million annually for equipment purchases, with activities conducted under Department of Justice policy guidelines and subject to audit and reporting requirements.
