Recommends that School Resource Officers (SROs) undergo yearly tactical training and a mental health screening.
Van Drew will support school resource officers receiving yearly tactical training and mental health screening.
Occurrences
Evidence
Van Drew introduced H.R. 2752, which would prioritize hiring and training veterans and retired law enforcement officers as school resource officers, and would authorize annual mental health screening and annual tactics-and-response training for SROs.
Congress.gov shows Rep. Van Drew introduced H.R. 2752 on 2025-04-08; the latest action is referral to Judiciary, Education and Workforce, and Veterans' Affairs, and the tracker status remains Introduced.
The bill text authorizes annual mental health screening and annual training on tactics and response for school resource officers.
Assessments
Van Drew materially supported the promise by introducing H.R. 2752 on April 8, 2025, and the bill text specifically called for annual tactical training and annual mental health screening for school resource officers. But the measure only reached the introduced-and-referred stage and was not enacted. Under the rubric, a serious legislative attempt that did not deliver the promised policy counts as never, with effort credit.
Van Drew materially supported the promised policy by introducing H.R. 2752 in the 119th Congress. The bill directly addressed the promise by authorizing annual mental health screening and annual tactics-and-response training for school resource officers. However, Congress.gov lists the bill as only introduced and referred to committees on April 8, 2025, with no passage or enactment. Because the promised outcome was not delivered despite a serious legislative attempt, this is not fulfilled, but merits an effort badge.
