This Minnesota bill proposes setting up a pilot program where grants are given to local law enforcement agencies to buy equipment specifically for responding to active shooter situations in schools. The program aims to help agencies that either don't have this type of equipment or don't have enough of it. Priority for the grants is given to those with a greater need for such equipment. Each agency applying for the grant must detail how many schools and students are in their area, the specific security challenges of these schools, and plans for how they will store the equipment to ensure it can be accessed quickly during an emergency. The bill also allocates a one-time sum of money from the state's general fund to support this program starting in fiscal year 2026.
