LEOSE Funds

LEOSE FUNDS

• Recognize that the Law Enforcement Officer Standards and Education Fund (LEOSE) is the account in the state treasury that funds on-going law enforcement training for peace officers and telecommunicators.
• Know that local Texas law enforcement agencies have received the same amount - $6 million per year ($12 million per biennium) – for continuing education over the past two decades.
• Act to improve policing for Texas, by investing in the on-going training for existing officers by doubling the commitment for LEOSE funds to $12 million per year ($24 M per biennium).
