NIST, GAO, and OMB each call for documented AI risk management, monitoring, or accountability within different scopes. NIST's framework is voluntary and being revised, GAO's is evaluative, and OMB M-25-21 applies to covered federal executive uses rather than all public algorithms.
Issues: Algorithmic Public Systems
Sources and locators: 4 governed SourceUses.
Disposition: Reviewed Qualified.
Limitations: The sources are governance frameworks, not evidence that any specific system is safe, fair, effective, compliant, or free of disparate impact. Current OMB guidance may supersede earlier memoranda.

Federal systems maintain an anti-Jewish hate-crime category and have issued antisemitism strategy and house-of-worship safety guidance. Reported hate-crime data depend on participating agencies, while strategy and guidance describe responses rather than complete prevalence or proven effectiveness.
Issues: Antisemitism Safety
Sources and locators: 4 governed SourceUses.
Disposition: Reviewed Qualified.
Limitations: Hate-crime reporting by state, local, and tribal agencies is voluntary. A policy strategy and security guide do not establish incident frequency or the effectiveness of every intervention.

Federal statute and current form instructions define parts of asylum eligibility and procedure. GAO reported nearly 3.5 million pending immigration-court cases as of July 2024 and associated delays; current timing also depends on venue, posture, policy, representation, and operational practice.
Issues: Asylum Access
Sources and locators: 4 governed SourceUses.
Disposition: Reviewed Qualified.
Limitations: This is not legal advice or an eligibility determination. Rules, forms, bilateral arrangements, and litigation can change, and court-backlog evidence does not describe every asylum pathway or case outcome.

Federal assessments and surveillance describe associations between extreme heat, illness, and mortality and identify unequal exposure or susceptibility. The cited systems use different endpoints and coverage; emergency-department surveillance is not a complete national prevalence measure.
Issues: Climate Health
Sources and locators: 4 governed SourceUses.
Disposition: Reviewed Qualified.
Limitations: Death certificates can undercount heat contribution, modeled exposure is not individual exposure, and broad national assessments do not replace local analysis or prove a single event's attribution.

Federal records document distinct indicators relevant to racial housing inequality: paired-testing treatment differences in the 2012 study, sample-based homeownership-rate differences in 2024, and selected redlining enforcement actions. They should not be combined into a prevalence or causal estimate.
Issues: Housing Segregation Displacement
Sources and locators: 4 governed SourceUses.
Disposition: Reviewed Qualified.
Limitations: The measures use different populations, geographies, and years. Descriptive gaps and enforcement allegations do not by themselves identify a single cause or establish liability outside the cited matters.

Executive Order 14224 revoked Executive Order 13166 and allowed agencies to decide how to provide services; subsequent DOJ guidance urged reduction of non-essential multilingual services. Separate ACS estimates describe language use and English proficiency, not legal entitlement or service access.
Issues: Latinidad Language Access
Sources and locators: 4 governed SourceUses.
Disposition: Reviewed Qualified.
Limitations: The policy sources do not measure outcomes, and the ACS table does not identify legal obligations or explain access barriers. Agency implementation and applicable statutes require continuing review.

Federal records separately document 2022 maternal-mortality differences, rural obstetric-service constraints through the periods studied, and state adoption of extended postpartum coverage; they do not establish one causal pathway or a current state-by-state outcome comparison.
Issues: Maternal Health
Sources and locators: 4 governed SourceUses.
Disposition: Reviewed Qualified.
Limitations: Mortality, hospital availability, and coverage policy are different constructs. The rural evidence uses older availability data, and state coverage does not by itself establish care quality or outcomes.

Federal policing-accountability evidence remains incomplete: voluntary use-of-force reporting fell below the FBI's publication threshold for incident counts in the cited period, GAO documented federal publication and oversight gaps, and DOJ's Trenton finding is local rather than national.
Issues: Policing Accountability
Sources and locators: 4 governed SourceUses.
Disposition: Reviewed Supported.
Limitations: Participation and definitions constrain national comparability. A local pattern-or-practice finding cannot be generalized to other departments, and the sources do not establish the effect of any particular reform.

World Bank snapshots show remittance-price variation among sampled corridors, providers, amounts, and access methods; U.S. Regulation E governs specified disclosures and errors; GAO documented constraints in selected fragile-country corridors. These sources do not measure every channel or actual consumer price.
Issues: Remittances Financial Access
Sources and locators: 4 governed SourceUses.
Disposition: Reviewed Qualified.
Limitations: World Bank coverage is not every corridor, Regulation E describes legal duties rather than outcomes, and GAO's four-country case study is not generalizable to all remittance senders or heritage-nation contexts.

EAC's 2024 EAVS compiles jurisdiction-reported election-administration data; Census's November 2024 supplement estimates self- or proxy-reported registration and voting; federal law supplies separate legal protections. These measures are not interchangeable.
Issues: Voting Access
Sources and locators: 4 governed SourceUses.
Disposition: Reviewed Supported.
Limitations: Administrative and survey totals differ in definitions and methods. Census identifies nonresponse and misreporting risks, and neither dataset alone establishes whether a particular barrier caused a participation difference.
