Additional Appropriations for the Metro Area Crime Suppression Unit, supported

This resolution supports the Governor's proposed $3 million annual appropriation for the Metro Area Crime Suppression Unit (MACS). It endorses expanding MACS's funding to hire 10 additional officers and extend its operations statewide, building on the unit's 2024 achievements like 2,100 traffic stops and 166 firearm seizures. The resolution does not appropriate funds itself but formally encourages the Legislature to back this funding request in the budget process. It directly affects MACS operations and its ability to expand crime-fighting efforts beyond Montgomery.
