What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, the Department of Justice (DOJ) provides grants to cities

to fund programs aimed at crime reduction in neighborhoods that are affected by

high levels of crime. The bill increases, for fiscal year 2013-14, the appropriation for

those grants by $250,000 and directs DOJ to provide a one-time grant in fiscal year

2013-14 of $250,000 to the city of Milwaukee to be used by the city in its firearms

buy-back program.
