Washington D.C. – A press release from the office of Indiana Republican Senator Todd Young says the Senator has introduced two bills into legislation that will help local law enforcement agencies invest in training, recruitment and mental health support.  The Invest to Protect Act, introduced with Senator Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) and Chaterine Cortez Mastro (D-Nev.) will help local law enforcement agencies by creating a special grant program within the Department of Justice to support hiring and resources for agencies with under 175 officers. The Fighting PTSD Act introduced with Senators Grassley and Chris Coons (D-Del.) looks to enhance the mental health services for first responders nationwide.
