What this bill does
Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau
This bill creates a grant program, administered by the Department of Justice,
to award grants to school districts, operators of independent charter schools,
governing bodies of private schools, and tribal schools to improve school safety.
Under the bill, DOJ must, in consultation with the Department of Public Instruction,
develop a plan for awarding the grants. The plan must include what expenditures
are eligible to be funded by a grant, including expenditures related to the
employment of armed school safety officers and safety-related upgrades to school
buildings, equipment, and facilities.
