AI Summary
This bill authorizes the Project Safe Neighborhoods Grant Program, which aims to foster partnerships between federal, state, and local agencies to reduce violent crimes through comprehensive strategic plans, evidence-based intervention and prevention initiatives, and data collection on program outcomes. The bill defines key terms such as "firearms offenses" and "transnational organized crime group," and specifies that 30% of the grant funds will be directed to established Regional Gang Task Forces in regions with significant presence or activity from such groups. The bill also requires the Attorney General to promulgate rules to create, carry out, and administer the program, and authorizes $50 million in appropriations for each of fiscal years 2019 through 2021 to fund the program.
