Bill overview
The Recruit and Retain Act aims to bolster law enforcement recruitment and retention by expanding the Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS) grant program. Specifically, it allows COPS grants to cover application-related fees, and directs the Department of Justice to partner with educational institutions for recruitment activities. The bill also establishes guidelines for understaffed agencies applying for grants and mandates a study on the impact of recruitment and attrition rates on law enforcement agencies nationwide.
