COP Act of 2025

The proposed legislation, officially titled the Citizen-Only Police Act of 2025 , establishes a clear prohibition on the allocation of federal funds. Specifically, it mandates that no Federal funds may be made available to any law enforcement agency that employs an individual classified as an alien in a law enforcement officer position. This measure is designed to compel law enforcement agencies to exclusively hire United States citizens for officer roles by using federal funding as a powerful incentive. The bill's objective is to ensure that all law enforcement personnel supported by federal resources are citizens, thereby directly influencing hiring policies across the nation.
