Introduced Text

Massachusetts H2730 proposes balanced law enforcement representation on the POST Commission.

Massachusetts H2730 amends the Peace Officer Standards and Training Commission membership to include one active POST Certified law enforcement officer from a department with fewer than 50 officers and one from a department with 50 or more officers. It also mandates that any POST Commissioner representing a labor organization must be POST certified and restricts the appointment of individuals from police organizations or departments to one at a time. This bill aims to ensure diverse and balanced representation on the POST Commission.
