The main purpose of this legislation, known as the Single Application for School Safety Act or SASS Act, is to streamline the process for schools seeking funding for security improvements. It aims to make it easier for educational institutions to apply for matching grants that support school safety initiatives. The key provision of the act allows schools to submit a single application for matching grants from two different federal programs: one managed by the Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS) and the other by the Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA).
