The Safe Access to Cash Act is scheduled for makeup by the Senate Judiciary Committee on March 5, according to an announcement from The National ATM Council and ATMIA.

The act would amend U.S. law to "clarify that ATMs are in the care, custody, control, management, or possession of, any bank, credit union, or any savings and loan association regardless of whether the ATM is located on the physical premises of such an institution." By doing so, this would make it a felony to target an off-premise ATM owned by a financial institution.

During the markup session, the Senate Judiciary Committee will make suggested changes to the bill before advancing it to voting on the floor.

The National ATM Council is urging members to contact senators to encourage them to support the bill.
