This bill proposes the addition of a new section to Minnesota Statutes, chapter 299A, allowing for the acceptance of certain gifts related to the line of duty death of a public safety officer. The new legal language defines key terms such as "gift," "killed in the line of duty," "plaque," and "public safety officer." It establishes that gifts can be given to public safety officers under specific conditions: the gift must be given within 24 months of the officer's death, must be from any person, and should honor or commemorate the deceased officer or provide morale and cohesion to the team.

Additionally, the bill specifies that these gifts are permissible notwithstanding existing laws, specifically sections 10A.071 and 471.895. The effective date of this section is set for the day following final enactment, applying to gifts given on or after that date. This legislation aims to support public safety officers and their teams during times of loss by allowing them to receive gifts that recognize their service and sacrifice.
