Cops in Schools Bill on The Way

Representative Mark Meadows, of North Carolina, is set to introduce a bill that will bring cops into US schools.

The bill would bring back the "Cops in Schools" program, in which the federal government provides money for local jurisdictions to hire officers specifically for guarding schools.

Meadows already has found thirty million dollars of funding, for the program.

His plan would take the money from the budget of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, as they have money that they are not using.

Cops in Schools was first brought into being in 1998, but was allowed to expire in 2005.
