The bill proposes the appropriation of funds for supplemental nonprofit security grants to enhance public safety in Minnesota. Specifically, it allocates an unspecified amount from the general fund for fiscal years 2026 and 2027 to the commissioner of public safety. Nonprofit organizations that have received approval for funding through the Federal Emergency Management Agency's nonprofit security grant program will be eligible for these state grants, which do not require a separate application. Eligible organizations can receive grants of up to $75,000, with the stipulation that the total funding from both federal and state programs cannot exceed this amount.
Additionally, the bill outlines that grants will be awarded based on the ranking of applicants from the federal program, and no state grants will be distributed until the federal grant recipients are announced. The commissioner is also permitted to allocate up to one percent of the appropriated funds to cover administrative costs associated with managing the supplemental nonprofit security grant program.
