Personalized for You
Personalize government policy and PRIA will tell you what this bill means for your household, plus every other piece of legislation we track. PRIA reads each provision against your financial profile to show you exactly what matters to your wallet.
3 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 1 costs, 1 mixed.
If you take a bonus, you must finish the required service time. If you leave the high-need area early, you must repay the money; if you served part of the time, repayment is pro rata. You have no guaranteed right to a bonus or the maximum amount. Payments depend on available funds and eligibility decisions.
During the first five years, your total bonuses are capped at $50,000. After you finish five years, you may get up to $10,000 for each extra two years you keep serving in a qualifying area.
The law creates a bonus program to recruit and keep full-time prosecutors in high-need areas. Beginning November 1, 2026, eligible prosecutors can apply. A committee names the high-need areas, decides who qualifies, and sets payment timing and paperwork. Prosecutors already serving in a named area can join, and everyone starts the first five-year period at the same time. The state creates a revolving fund to pay the bonuses.
