Creates a Justice Department grant program to help local law enforcement agencies pay for accreditation or re-certification.
Only local agencies with fewer than 350 employees can apply, and they must show financial need in their application.
Grant money can cover accreditation or re-certification fees, on-site assessment costs, and extension fees.
Sets aside up to $10 million for fiscal year 2025, and the money can be used until it runs out.
If passed, this could help smaller departments meet professional standards without raising local taxes or cutting other services.
