Read twice and referred to the Committee on the Judiciary.
This bill keeps an existing grant program going so police officers and their families can get support and treatment during tough times. It updates the law to extend these grants for five more years, covering 2025 through 2029, under the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968 .
In simple terms, it continues funding that communities already use to help officers and their families, rather than creating something new. The main change is the new dates for the program’s authorization .
