A new center would be set up to protect state and local judges and court staff from threats.
This bill would allow a new national center to be set up to help protect state and local judges and court staff. This center would provide security training, monitor threats, and coordinate with law enforcement to keep court personnel safe. It aims to improve safety for thousands of people working in our justice system.
Currently, there is no specific federal program that authorizes the State Justice Institute to fund a national center focused on protecting state and local judges and court staff from threats. If this bill becomes law, the State Justice Institute would be able to provide money and support to qualified nonprofit groups to establish and operate such a center. This new center would offer security training, monitor threats, and develop a national database to share information about threats to judicial officers and court staff.
