HIRRE Prosecutors Act of 2025

This bill, known as the "HIRRE Prosecutors Act of 2025," directs the Attorney General to establish a new grant program within one year of enactment. The program aims to assist State, territorial, local, and tribal governments in strengthening their prosecutorial capacity. Specifically, these competitive grants will enable prosecutor's offices to hire, retain, and train prosecutors and support staff , addressing critical staffing needs. The Attorney General may give preferential consideration to applications focused on hiring new staff, rehiring prosecutors laid off due to budget cuts, or from tribal, remote, or rural jurisdictions. The federal share for these projects will not exceed 75 percent, though a waiver is possible, and funds must supplement, not supplant, existing resources. The bill authorizes an appropriation of $10,000,000 annually for fiscal years 2026 through 2030 to support this program.
