This bill changes a federal law that governs certain police grants, known as COPS grants, under the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968. It would add a new group of applicants who may receive priority consideration for these grants. The new group is applicants in a state or local government that has a written agreement with the Secretary of Homeland Security under section 287(g) of the Immigration and Nationality Act. Section 287(g) agreements allow state and local officers to carry out certain federal immigration enforcement duties.
