This bill authorizes state peace officer standards and training agencies to access federal criminal history records. These agencies—which set hiring, training, and certification standards for law enforcement officers in their states—currently lack direct access to the FBI's criminal history database. The legislation amends federal law to add these agencies to the list of entities permitted to obtain criminal records, allowing them to better screen police candidates and maintain professional standards across law enforcement. The bill applies to all U.S. states and territories. The Attorney General must issue implementing regulations within 180 days of the law's enactment, though no new federal funding is specified in the legislation.
