What it does
Idaho State Police programs receive $6,695,000 for personnel costs during fiscal year 2027. Most comes from the Idaho Law Enforcement (Project Choice) Fund; Patrol also receives federal grant money.
Argument forThe funding could help State Police offices, investigators, patrol, and other programs pay personnel costs during fiscal year 2027.
