Summary
The Female Officers Ballistic Protection Act requires federal law enforcement agencies to procure body armor specifically designed for female officers that meets enhanced standards for fit, coverage, and ballistic protection. The bill mandates that body armor be certified by the National Institute of Justice, tested using gender-specific molds and angled shots to prevent bullet deflection into vulnerable areas, and verified upon delivery to fit properly. Federal agencies must submit annual reports on compliance for three years, with a deadline of three years for all female officers to be issued compliant armor.
