Mississippi School Resource Officers School Safety (MS ROSS) Act; create to provide funding to local law enforcement agencies.

Summary

The MS ROSS Act would let the state Department of Public Safety pay up to 75% of the salary and related costs for a school resource officer at every public and private elementary and secondary school. Local police or sheriffs and the school’s governing board would cover the remaining share. The measure created a special fund and allowed state bonds for financing, but it died in committee.
