The legislation would extend federal funding for the COPS ON THE BEAT grant program, which provides money to local police departments to hire and train new officers. This program helps communities across the country strengthen their law enforcement by covering a portion of officer salaries and related costs, making it easier for smaller departments to expand their forces.
