New Law Enforcement Academy Planned

DPS Col Steven McCraw

Texas DPS Director Steve McCraw is asking the state legislature for an additional $1.2 billion to improve the law enforcement response to active shooter situations. He wants the money to build a Law Enforcement Academy as part of the current DPS facility in Williamson County. In addition, McCraw is asking the state legislature to spread out the payment of the $1.2 billion cost over the next six years.
