This bill proposes an amendment to Minnesota Statutes 2024, section 299D.03, allowing certain public safety employees to purchase their surplus badges. Specifically, it permits state troopers, commercial vehicle inspectors, and Capitol security officers—whether currently employed or retired—to buy the badge that was issued to them during their employment.

Key provisions: - The Commissioner of Public Safety may sell these badges. - The sale price must reflect the fair market value, as determined by the commissioner. - "Surplus badge" refers to: - A badge bearing any seal before May 11, 2024. - A retired officer's badge bearing any seal.

The bill overrides existing restrictions on state-owned property sales outlined in sections 15.054 or 16B.2975 of Minnesota law.
