Representative Leitner introduces bill to create violent-crime clearance program; referred to Appropriations

Representative Leitner introduced House Bill 5097, described in the transcript as "a bill to create a violent crime clearance program in the Department of State Police." The measure received a first reading by title and was referred to the House Appropriations Committee.

The introduction occurred during a brief House session that did not reach a quorum; members did not debate the bill’s text, funding, or implementation, and no vote on the measure was taken. The record contains no further substantive discussion of the bill or any fiscal analysis.

The transcript records the formal introduction and referral but does not include bill text beyond the title or any amendments. Additional details — including the bill’s sponsor statement, fiscal notes, committee scheduling or timeline for hearings — were not provided in the recorded remarks.
