Concerning elected sheriffs.

Summary

The bill says an elected sheriff who does not hold a peace‑officer certification may keep the title and duties of the office, but cannot personally perform any police actions reserved for certified officers. If a sheriff’s certification is revoked after they take office, a recall is started automatically; for certain revocations no petition signatures are needed and a special election is set. The measure aims to ensure sheriffs are properly trained and accountable to voters.
