Alabama lawmakers push for minimum police staffing in Montgomery and Huntsville, mandating at least one point nine full-time officers per one thousand residents. The bill, which cleared the Senate and heads to the full House, gives cities five years to comply or face state oversight. Attorney General Steve Marshall criticizes Montgomery leaders for ignoring their police shortage, threatening to take control if cities dont meet yearly goals. The bill aims to ensure adequate police presence and could reshape local policing before the session ends.
