AI Summary
This bill, the LEOSA Reform Act, aims to improve the Law Enforcement Officer Safety Act (LEOSA) and provisions related to the carrying of concealed weapons by law enforcement officers. Specifically, it amends the Gun-Free School Zones Act to allow individuals authorized under LEOSA to carry concealed firearms in those zones. The bill also expands the areas where LEOSA-qualified current and retired law enforcement officers can carry firearms, such as Facility Security Level I or II civilian public access facilities. Additionally, it modifies the firearms training requirements for LEOSA qualification, providing more flexibility in the standards that can be used.
