What this amendment would do

As your legislative analyst, let's break down what Mr. Bennet is trying to do here in plain English. He submitted amendment numbered SA 1604, which deals with our community policing programs.

What it aims to change or add: The amendment adds a deficit-neutral reserve fund relating to COPS community policing to the concurrent resolution. Specifically, it allows the Chairman of the Committee on the Budget of the Senate to make adjustments and revise allocations for legislation related to COPS community policing. This includes prohibiting any action that reduces funding for the Office of Community Oriented Policing Services in support of community policing.

To keep our officials accountable and our budget responsible, this can only happen if the legislation does not increase the deficit over the total period of fiscal years 2025 through 2034.
