AI-generated summary. We recommend consulting the bill text for important decisions.

Before a city can fire, demote, or suspend a law enforcement officer for more than two days without pay, this bill requires the officer's employing agency to first notify them in writing of the specific allegations against them, give them at least two business days to submit a written response, and provide them an opportunity to be heard by the agency head. These procedural protections apply to municipal law enforcement officers working under both classified civil service and other municipal employment structures, though municipalities that already have stronger protections in place are not affected.
