Helping Rural Police Forces Receive Training by Tiffany Hsieh, Apr 16, 2008 (8:56pm)

This bill creates a Rural Policing Institute that specializes in rural law enforcement issues. Rural law enforcement agencies often have smaller staffs and budgets. This bill helps the police officers receive training in such issues as drug trafficking. This provision was added as an amendment to S 4, which implemented some of the 9/11 Commission’s recommendations.
