AI Summary

This bill mandates that the Board of Peace Officer Standards and Training (POST Board) develop a model policy by December 31, 2026, to enhance the safety of elected officials, which includes consulting with legislative leaders and various law enforcement and government organizations. This model policy must require local law enforcement agencies to keep records of elected officials' addresses, establish communication channels with them, and provide security as needed. By September 1, 2027, all local law enforcement agencies must adopt a policy that is either identical or substantially similar to the POST Board's model policy. Failure to comply could result in licensing sanctions or legal action. For the purposes of this section, an "elected official" is defined broadly to include anyone elected or appointed to fill a vacancy in a federal, state, or local government office.
