S 4820 United States Senate · 118th Congress

HIRRE Prosecutors Act of 2024

This bill creates a federal grant program to help states, local governments, and tribal entities hire and retain prosecutors. It provides up to 75% federal funding (with possible waiver of the 25% local match requirement) for prosecutor offices to hire, train, or retain staff, prioritizing rural, tribal, and areas affected by budget cuts that laid off prosecutors. The program requires grantees to track outcomes and report progress, with $10 million authorized annually for fiscal years 2025-2029. It directly affects prosecutor offices seeking to strengthen staffing capacity through federal financial support.
