A State or unit of local government may not receive funds that the jurisdiction would otherwise receive under subpart 1 of part E of title I of the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968 ( 34 U.S.C. 10151 et seq.) for any fiscal year in which the jurisdiction does not have in place a law that is consistent with section 250 of title 18, United States Code, as determined by the Attorney General. In the case that funds are withheld from a State or other jurisdiction pursuant to subsection (a), and the State or other jurisdiction subsequently enacts or puts in place a law described in subsection (a), and demonstrates substantial efforts to enforce such law, the State or other jurisdiction shall be eligible, in the subsequent fiscal year, to receive the total amount that the State or other jurisdiction would have received in each fiscal year for which funds were withheld, not to exceed funds that the jurisdiction would have received during the previous 2-year period.
This section shall apply beginning in the first fiscal year that begins after the date that is one year after the date of the enactment of this Act. Not later than 30 days after the date of the enactment of this Act, the Attorney General shall publish in the Federal Register interim final rules implementing this section. The Attorney General shall finalize such rules not later than 90 days after the date of publication of the interim final rules.
