Bill overview
Senate Bill 1740 creates a statewide ‘turquoise alert’ system to quickly notify the public about missing persons under 65. Law enforcement agencies can activate this system when a missing person is believed to be in danger, and all local resources have been exhausted. The bill mandates training for law enforcement personnel on how to utilize the system and ensures coordination with other notification systems. This system aims to improve the chances of a safe and timely recovery of missing individuals.
