The bill establishes the Minnesota Clearance Grant Program, aimed at increasing the solve rate of nonfatal shooting crimes by providing grants to law enforcement agencies. It defines key terms related to nonfatal shooting clearance rates and outlines the program's purpose, which includes improving law enforcement strategies, enhancing victim support, and encouraging interagency cooperation. The program prioritizes agencies with high rates of unsolved nonfatal shootings and inadequate staffing, and it requires applicants to demonstrate collaboration with other agencies and a commitment to evaluating their effectiveness.

Additionally, the bill specifies how grant funds can be utilized, including hiring personnel, overtime for staff, developing evidence-based policies, and acquiring necessary technology. It mandates that agencies receiving grants submit biannual reports detailing their activities and outcomes related to reducing violent crime and improving clearance rates. The bill also includes appropriations from the general fund for the program in fiscal years 2026 and 2027, with a base appropriation set for subsequent years.
