Why is this important?
These changes will make policing a respected and accountable profession which will
afford a safer community for all. Our main goal should be keeping the peace as we have all
citizens abide in the law, and if one breaks the law, they will be treated fairly and humanely.
Even though a person commits or is suspected of commiting a crime we as a country must still understand they have rights
and deserve to be treated fairly under the laws of the United States of America. Finally, law
enforcement is not the final justice our court system has that role.
This investment by State and local governments in basic rights will forge a new future for our
nation. Please make law enforcement reform a higher priority by continuing to invest in new
programs and make the changes listed above.
