What This Bill Does

This bill concerns impermissible law enforcement quotas.

Key Provisions

This bill:

  • defines terms;
  • requires the State Commission on Criminal and Juvenile Justice to collect reports of alleged violations of the impermissible law enforcement quota prohibition and annually report the data to the Law Enforcement and Criminal Justice Interim Committee;
  • prohibits a political subdivision or law enforcement agency from:
    • requiring or directing a peace officer to meet an impermissible quota; or
    • transferring, promoting, disciplining, or taking other actions against a peace officer for reasons relating to an impermissible quota; and
  • makes technical and conforming changes.

Plain-Language Summary

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

Utah already bans law enforcement agencies from requiring officers to meet citation quotas — minimum numbers of tickets an officer must issue — but this bill strengthens those protections and adds an oversight mechanism. It expands the existing prohibition so that agencies cannot use quota performance to evaluate, promote, compensate, reward, discipline, or reassign an officer. It also creates a formal reporting channel, allowing anyone to report an alleged violation to the State Commission on Criminal and Juvenile Justice, which must then compile those reports and submit them annually to the Legislature's Law Enforcement and Criminal Justice Interim Committee.
