HB 5513 establishes the Rural Law Enforcement Child Care Grant Program, which provides financial assistance for child care costs incurred by rural law enforcement officers. The program aims to improve workforce stability and community support for officers and their families. Funding will come from state appropriations, federal grants, and private donations. The Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) will administer the program, set eligibility requirements, and oversee grants. An advisory committee will be created to recommend funding priorities, grant approvals, and program improvements. Annual reports will track the program’s effectiveness.
