GovInfo lists H.R. 8452 as introduced by Rep. Nancy Mace on April 22, 2026 and referred to the House Committee on the Judiciary. The bill title is Restoring Law and Order on America’s Streets Act, with the full title: to amend title 18, United States Code, to provide for civil commitment of persons who are a danger to public safety.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): Mace took concrete legislative action related to the streets/vagrancy commitment, but the official record shows only introduction and committee referral, not enactment or enforcement. No newer official action appeared in the Aug. 19-21, 2026 lookback window.

Mace's office said she introduced the Restoring Law and Order on America's Streets Act to expand federal civil commitment authority. The release says the bill covers conduct including public drug possession/use/sale, urban camping or urban squatting, vandalism, and requires mandatory DOJ evaluations for homeless individuals in custody.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): The release connects Mace’s bill to public-disorder and street-safety enforcement goals, but it describes a proposal rather than an enacted or enforced vagrancy law. This supports serious effort but not completed delivery.

Mace introduced H.R. 8452, the Restoring Law and Order on America's Streets Act, in April 2026, which was related to street disorder and civil commitment authority. But the bill was only introduced and referred to committee; there is no evidence it was enacted or that strict federal vagrancy laws were enforced as promised. This qualifies as a serious legislative effort, not delivery of the promised outcome.
