Gov. Ricketts proud of pro-law enforcement funding - KSNB
GRAND ISLAND, Neb. (KSNB) - Governor Pete Ricketts taunted his pro-law enforcement bills signed into law on Thursday.
One of those bills is LB1270, which helps agencies not only hire new officers, but also goes towards retaining them. The other bill, LB1014, will allocate over $47 million of American Rescue Plan Money to help expand the Nebraska Law Enforcement Training Center in Grand Island.
Governor Ricketts said the expansion was important to get passed during this legislative session.
“One of the reasons we wanted to invest in the Nebraska Law Enforcement Training Center here in Grand Island, was to be able to increase the capacity so that our communities across Nebraska can get their law enforcement officers trained in a timely manner,” Governor Ricketts told Local4 News.
The governor said he wanted priority on those bills to help agencies around the state hire members faster.
