To provide grants for law enforcement training and equipment to combat methamphetamine labs.
Methamphetamine Equipment, Training, Hardware, Material, and Safety Knowledge Grant Act of 2003 - Amends the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968 to authorize the Director of the Bureau of Justice Assistance to make matching grants to States, local governments, and Indian tribes to provide to law enforcement officers protective equipment and training for investigating and responding to offenses related to methamphetamine clandestine drug laboratories.
Authorizes the Director to give preferential consideration to an application from a jurisdiction that: (1) has the greatest need and a methamphetamine clandestine drug laboratory-related seizures per capita rate at or above the national average; or (2) has consolidated local law enforcement effort by creating multi-jurisdictional law task forces. Requires funds to be awarded to each qualifying local government with fewer than 100,000 residents.
