HR 4111 United States House · 118th Congress

School Guardian Act of 2023

The School Guardian Act of 2023 creates a federal grant program to fund armed law enforcement officers at K-12 schools. It directs $80 billion in redirected IRS funds to provide grants to states, which then distribute subgrants to local law enforcement agencies to hire full-time officers for school security. Each school must have at least one assigned officer under written agreements between law enforcement agencies and schools. States must report annually on grant usage, including the number of schools and officers covered, with unused funds returned to the federal government.
