Summary
The Stop Militarizing Law Enforcement Act amends federal law to restrict the transfer of military equipment from the Department of Defense to law enforcement agencies under the 1033 program. The bill prohibits transfers of firearms, explosives, armored vehicles, drones, silencers, and long-range acoustic devices, while allowing limited transfers of non-automatic firearms and certain vehicles only with certification that they are necessary for specific emergency purposes and will not be used for routine patrol. The bill also requires law enforcement agencies to notify their communities before acquiring military equipment, obtain local governing body approval, and submit annual certifications accounting for all transferred controlled property.
