AI Summary

This bill directs the Department of Public Safety Standards and Training (DPSST), a state agency responsible for law enforcement training and standards, to conduct a comprehensive study exploring the feasibility of creating a centralized gang database for law enforcement use. The department is required to prepare and submit a report, which may include legislative recommendations, to the interim judicial committees of the Oregon Legislative Assembly by September 15, 2026. The bill includes a sunset provision that automatically repeals the study requirement on January 2, 2027, meaning the department's obligation to conduct the study will expire on that date. The purpose appears to be gathering information about the potential benefits, challenges, and legal considerations of establishing a statewide gang database that could potentially assist law enforcement agencies in tracking and addressing gang-related activities.
