The changes made to Bill HB 1434 clarify the definitions and compensation thresholds for full-time and part-time law enforcement officers. The minimum compensation for full-time deputy sheriffs and municipal police officers has been increased, ensuring that those in these roles receive a higher salary for their important work.
