What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill appropriates $4,000,000 in the 2023-25 fiscal biennium to the

Department of Justice so that DOJ may award grants to school boards or governing

bodies of private schools to acquire proactive metallic and nonmetallic threat

detection equipment and software. The bill provides that if a 2023 bill creating the

grant program is not enacted into law, the appropriation of the money for the grant

program by this bill is void.
