HB 757 -- Law Enforcement Safety Fund

Sponsor:  Rupp

This bill creates the Law Enforcement Safety Fund, a retirement
benefit program for police officers.  The fund will receive a $7
surcharge on municipal criminal cases and may receive grants and
donations from public and private sources.  A seven-person board
consisting of three police chiefs, three police officers, and a
member of the General Assembly will oversee the fund.  The fund
will pay monthly stipends to retired police officers meeting
certain requirements and $10,000 to a designated beneficiary when
a police officer is killed in the line of duty.
