The Obama administration has threatened to veto the legislation, due to funding levels for certain programs and the capping of discretionary funding levels at the budgetary sequester level.<\/p>\n<p>The bill eliminated funding for several important Department of Justice (DOJ) assistance programs for state, local, and tribal law enforcement, including the Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS) Hiring Program, the Paul Coverdell Forensic Science Improvement Grants Program, and funding provided through Title II of the Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act (JJDPA).<\/p>\n<p>Amendments of interest to the bill that passed include the following:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>An increase to the Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant (Byrne-JAG) program of $100 million. This now brings the total funding for Byrne-JAG to $509 million, an increase over the FY 2015-enacted level and the U.S. president&#8217;s budget request. The congressional intent behind the increase is to assist with the hiring and training of new police officers, an effort to continue to provide funding for the hiring and retention of law enforcement officers following the elimination of the COPS Hiring Program. This amendment was offered by U.S. Representative Dave Reichert (R-WA).<\/li>\n<li>An increase of $4 million to address the backlog of sexual assault kits. This brings the total funding in the bill to $45 million, an increase over the FY 2015-enacted level and the president&#8217;s budget request. This amendment was offered by U.S. Representative Steve Cohen (D-TN).<\/li>\n<li>An increase of $10 million to the new Community Trust Initiative, which is intended to be used for police body-worn cameras. This amendment was offered by U.S. Representative Joaquin Castro (D-TX).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The spending bill also includes the following restrictions on the use of U.S. federal funds:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Prohibits federal funds from being used by DOJ or the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) to mandate or request that a person alter a product or a service to permit the electronic surveillance of any user of such product or service.<\/li>\n<li>Prohibits federal funds from being used to expand new law enforcement certifications under the National Firearms Act.<\/li>\n<li>Prohibits federal funds from being used by DOJ to prevent a state from implementing its own state laws that authorize the use, distribution, possession, or cultivation of industrial hemp.<\/li>\n<li>Bars DOJ from using federal funds to interfere with state marijuana laws in 39 states, the District of Columbia, and the territory of Guam.<\/li>\n<li>Bars federal funds from being used to treat any M855- or SS109-type ammunition as armor-piercing ammunition.<\/li>\n<li>Prohibits federal funds from being used to operate or disseminate a cell site simulator or IMSI (International Mobile Subscriber Identity) catcher, except pursuant to a court order that identifies an individual, account, address, or personal device.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The U.S. Senate began consideration of its FY 2016 CJS bill in mid-June 2015.<\/p>\n<h3><big>National Criminal Justice Commission Act Introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives<\/big><\/h3>\n<p>On May 14, 2015, U.S. Representative Ted Deutch (D-FL) introduced the National Criminal Justice Commission Act of 2015 (H.R. 2330), the House companion measure to S. 1119, which was introduced in April 2015. The House bill, which mirrors the Senate bill, would create a National Criminal Justice Commission charged with comprehensively reviewing the U.S. criminal justice system.<\/p>\n<p>The commission would be composed of 14 bipartisan presidential and congressional appointees with experience in law enforcement; criminal justice; national security; prison and jail administration; prisoner reentry; public health; victim&#8217;s rights; civil liberties; court administration; social services; and state, local, and tribal government.<\/p>\n<p>Following the 18-month review of the criminal justice system, the commission would be tasked with issuing recommendations for federal criminal justice reform to the U.S. president and Congress and disseminating its findings and supplemental guidance to the federal government, as well as to state, local, and tribal governments.<\/p>\n<p>We hope that you will join IACP in actively supporting this important legislation. Please reach out to your U.S. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.house.gov\/representatives\">Representatives<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.senate.gov\/senators\/contact\">Senators<\/a> and let them know that you support H.R. 2330\/S. 1119 and would like them to sign on in support of the National Criminal Justice Commission Act of 2015.<\/p>\n<h3><big>IACP Meets with Federal Officials to Discuss the Transfer of Equipment to Law Enforcement Agencies<\/big><\/h3>\n<p>As previously reported by the IACP, in May 2015, an interagency working group, led by the DOJ, U.S. Department of Defense, and U.S. Department of Homeland Security, announced that it will ban or restrict the federal transfer of certain equipment to state, local, and tribal law enforcement agencies.<\/p>\n<p>The IACP recently attended a meeting with the Federal Interagency Law Enforcement Equipment Working Group to discuss &#8220;Recommendations Pursuant to Executive Order 13688: Federal Support for Local Law Enforcement Equipment Acquisition.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>During that meeting and in subsequent conversations, the IACP has provided feedback and a list of recommendations as the working group continues to discuss the implementation of the working group&#8217;s recommendations and develops additional policy reforms. \u2666<\/p>\n<p>Please cite as<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-left: .5in;\">Sarah Guy, &#8220;U.S. House Approves DOJ Spending Bill; Funding Slashed for Key Law Enforcement Assistance Programs,&#8221; Legislative Alert, <i>The Police Chief<\/i> 82 (July 2015): 10.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On June 3, 2015, the U.S. House of Representatives passed a $51.4 billion Fiscal Year (FY) 2016 Commerce, Justice, Science (CJS), and Related Agencies spending bill (H.R. 2578) as amended by a 242-183 vote.
