Section 102(b) of the NICS Improvement Amendments Act of 2007 ( 34 U.S.C. 40912 ) is amended to read as follows: Not later than 1 year after the date of enactment of the Safer Communities Act of 2019, the Attorney General, in coordination with the States, shall establish for each State or Indian Tribal government applying for a grant under section 103 a 4-year implementation plan to ensure maximum coordination and automation of the reporting of records or making records available to the National Instant Criminal Background Check System. Each 4-year plan established under paragraph
(1)shall include annual benchmarks, including both qualitative goals and quantitative measures, to assess implementation of the 4-year plan. During the 4-year period covered by a 4-year plan established under paragraph (1), the Attorney General shall withhold— 10 percent of the amount that would otherwise be allocated to a State under section 505 of the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968 ( 34 U.S.C. 10156 ) if the State does not meet the benchmark established under paragraph
(2)for the first year in the 4-year period; 11 percent of the amount that would otherwise be allocated to a State under section 505 of the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968 ( 34 U.S.C. 10156 ) if the State does not meet the benchmark established under paragraph
(2)for the second year in the 4-year period; 13 percent of the amount that would otherwise be allocated to a State under section 505 of the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968 ( 34 U.S.C. 10156 ) if the State does not meet the benchmark established under paragraph
(2)for the third year in the 4-year period; and 15 percent of the amount that would otherwise be allocated to a State under section 505 of the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968 ( 34 U.S.C. 10156 ) if the State does not meet the benchmark established under paragraph
(2)for the fourth year in the 4-year period. A State that fails to establish a plan under paragraph
