Summary of Bill S 911

Bill 119 s 911, also known as the "Public Safety Officers' Death Benefits Improvement Act of 2021," aims to amend the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968 to expand the eligibility criteria for the public safety officers' death benefits program. Specifically, this bill seeks to include certain retired law enforcement officers in this program.

The public safety officers' death benefits program provides financial assistance to the families of law enforcement officers, firefighters, and other public safety personnel who die in the line of duty. Currently, only active duty officers are eligible for these benefits. However, Bill 119 s 911 proposes to extend these benefits to retired law enforcement officers who meet certain criteria.

By including retired law enforcement officers in the public safety officers' death benefits program, this bill aims to provide additional support to the families of these officers in the event of their death. This change would recognize the sacrifices made by retired law enforcement officers throughout their careers and ensure that their families are taken care of in the event of a tragedy. Overall, Bill 119 s 911 seeks to improve the existing public safety officers' death benefits program by expanding eligibility to include certain retired law enforcement officers. This change would provide much-needed support to the families of these officers and honor their service to their communities.
