Section 303 says trained individuals and covered financial institutions are not liable for good-faith disclosures of suspected senior-citizen exploitation to covered agencies.

The enacted bill provides the liability protection described in the promise for covered financial institutions and specified financial professionals who report suspected exploitation to regulators, law enforcement, or adult protective services.

The U.S. Code section remains in force and includes immunity for individuals and covered financial institutions making qualifying disclosures about senior exploitation.

Current codified federal law confirms that the senior financial-fraud reporting immunity enacted in 2018 remains part of federal law as of the available U.S. Code text.

The promise was to support legislation protecting seniors by removing liability for financial institutions and professionals who report suspected senior financial fraud. Public Law 115-174, enacted May 24, 2018 during Rounds's Senate term, included Section 303 providing immunity for good-faith disclosures of suspected senior-citizen financial exploitation by trained individuals and covered financial institutions. Rounds voted yea on the Senate passage of S. 2155, the enacted vehicle, so the promised federal legislative outcome was delivered in the same term.
