AI Summary
This bill aims to reauthorize the Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS) grant program, which was originally established under the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968. Specifically, the bill updates the funding authorization for the COPS on the Beat grant program by increasing the authorized funding from $1,047,119,000 to $1,163,032,000 for each fiscal year from 2026 through 2030. The COPS program provides federal grants to state, local, and tribal law enforcement agencies to hire and train police officers, enhance community policing strategies, and improve public safety. By reauthorizing the program with increased funding, the bill seeks to continue supporting local law enforcement agencies in their efforts to build stronger relationships with the communities they serve and address public safety challenges.
