The PUBLIC SAFETY Act aims to bolster local law enforcement by reallocating existing funds and providing substantial new appropriations for key grant programs. It amends current law to redirect funds previously designated for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement to the COPS Hiring Program , extending their availability until September 30, 2030, and transferring administration to the Attorney General. A significant provision includes waiving certain COPS program requirements for smaller jurisdictions, specifically local and Tribal governments employing fewer than 175 law enforcement officers, to enhance their access to these grants. Furthermore, the bill appropriates a substantial sum of $45,000,000,000 to the Attorney General for the Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant Program (Byrne JAG) for fiscal year 2025, with funds available until September 30, 2029. This legislation seeks to provide increased financial support and flexibility for local police departments and justice initiatives across the nation.
