Drug-Free School Zone Enforcement Act

Summary

Drug-Free School Zone Enforcement Act - Amends the Safe and Drug-Free Schools and Communities Act of 1994 to establish a program of grants to reduce drug-related transactions and drug use in the one-mile areas surrounding elementary and secondary schools (drug-free zone enforcement). Directs the Secretary of Education to: (1) reserve for such grants program a specified minimum amount of funds under such Act; and (2) make program allotments to States, according to a specified formula. Requires States to use at least 95 percent of such grant allotments for subgrants to local governments for such drug-free zone enforcement. Requires local governments to use such subgrants to hire additional law enforcement officers and prosecutors, and facilitate coordination with State and Federal drug enforcement agencies, for such drug-free zone enforcement.
