​Recent incidents like the murders of George Floyd in Minnesota and Breonna Taylor in Kentucky have sparked mass protests across this nation around the issue of police reform and accountability. For too long African Americans have been disproportionately affected by police brutality and the systematic injustices of law enforcement.
U.S. House and Senate Democrats have unveiled legislation that would bring about widespread reforms to police departments across the country. The reforms include prohibiting the use of chokeholds, lower legal standards to pursue criminal and civil penalties for police misconduct and the ban of no-knock warrants in drug-related cases. The legislation would also create a national registry to track police misconduct.
