AI Summary
This bill proposes several significant changes to public safety and corrections-related laws in California. It establishes a Tribal Police Pilot Program from July 1, 2026, to July 1, 2029, which would grant peace officer authority to selected tribal police officers, allowing them to operate as California peace officers with specific training and certification requirements. The bill eliminates several existing oversight boards and committees, including the California Rehabilitation Oversight Board and the Council on Criminal Justice and Behavioral Health. It modifies tuberculosis screening requirements for Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation employees, expands mental health professional employment options in the correctional system, and allows college programs for inmates to be provided by accredited public or nonprofit colleges outside of California. The bill also changes data collection and reporting requirements for the Board of State and Community Corrections, removes the Recidivism Reduction Fund, and creates a new Tribal Police Pilot Fund with an initial appropriation of $5 million. Additionally, the legislation provides for ongoing monitoring and evaluation of the tribal police pilot program, with requirements for participating tribes to adopt specific legal provisions and submit detailed reports to the Legislature. The bill is part of the Budget Act of 2025 and is designed to take effect immediately.
