The El Paso Police Department has been looking into purchasing more than 700 body cameras for their officers, but finding the money had been an issue.
City representatives unanimously approved more than $6.6 million in funding from American Rescue Plan funds.
The funding will cover the costs for Digital Video Recording Systems, which includes 700 body-worn cameras and 410 mobile video recorders for the El Paso Police Department.
