In this Act, the term lawless jurisdiction means a designated area in a State or political subdivision of a State, which State or political subdivision has a statute, ordinance, policy, or practice in effect that, despite ongoing danger to individuals or property, allows any entity or official of the State or political subdivision of the State to, in such designated area, purposefully— refuse to provide police, fire, or emergency medical services to 1 or more individuals in the State or political subdivision of the State; or abdicate the reserved powers of the State or political subdivision of the State, to be performed by non-governmental actors in a manner that is detrimental to the health, safety, and welfare of the citizens of the State or political subdivision of the State.
