How much should the federal government offer regions, states, and cities that want to utilize body cameras?

This article places the cost of cameras, data storage systems, and other necessary equipment at around $1,440 per officer. We could make estimations based off of that.

     A quick Google search suggests that there are 765,000 sworn officers in the United States, so the max cost if we gave a bodycam to every officer would be just over $1.1B.  Many jurisdictions already use these, so we can be sure that it wouldn't hit that estimate though.

I don't believe we should allocate the full amount to pay for every officer in the US who doesn't have a body camera, the departments themselves should still be responsible for factoring some of that money into their budget. $250 million per region could be a starting point.

I think we've made a good piece of legislation here, so, unless there are any objections, I move:
