SF 4899 Minnesota Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Peace officer training reimbursement funding increase provision

This bill increases state funding for peace officer training reimbursements in Minnesota, primarily affecting local law enforcement agencies and training providers. The legislation raises annual funding from approximately $11.7 million to $14.8 million, with specific allocations for general training reimbursements and a dedicated Philando Castile Memorial Training Fund. The bill establishes requirements for training course applications, including detailed outlines, instructor qualifications, and learning assessments, while mandating that instructors collect and submit student evaluations. Additional provisions allow unused funds to be redirected to other approved training courses starting in fiscal year 2028, with increased base funding for this flexibility.
