The sponsor's argument

Why George Borrello says this is needed

The town of Busti, by unanimous vote, adopted a formal resolution in support of legislation that would designate its uniformed court officers as peace officers. A peace officer designation will both allow a uniformed court officer to maintain his or her peace officer status and certification for future employment, and decrease liability for the town of Busti by filling the position from a pool of peace officer certified candidates.

This is the sponsor's own case for the bill, quoted from their memorandum. It is not Agora's description of what the bill does.
