HB 6112 Michigan House · 2023-2024 Regular Session

Law enforcement: employment; licensing requirements under the Michigan commission on law enforcement standards act; update. Amends secs. 9, 9a, 9b, 9c, 9d & 11 of 1965 PA 203 (MCL 28.609 et seq.).

This bill updates Michigan's law enforcement standards act to modernize how police officers are licensed and trained. It requires agencies to verify that new officers meet specific standards, such as completing training, passing exams, and passing background checks, before they take an oath of office. The legislation adds new sections to the law to clarify these procedures and establish a training fund to support local police departments. Ultimately, the changes aim to ensure that all law enforcement officers in the state are properly vetted and qualified for their roles.
