Demilitarize and Re-envision Law Enforcement
A blueprint for fewer LEO-related deaths.
Demilitarize the police.
Have the National Guard confiscate their weapons of war and take over SWAT duties.
Fund mental health first responders and community watchers - and require a mental health responder for every police encounter with the public.
Require body cams for every officer hosted on third-party servers - unable to be turned off by the responding officer or their local precinct.
Higher standards for Law Enforcement Officers (LEOs):
End Qualified Immunity
Require higher education - ideally a 4-year law degree.
More regulated training - ideally military experience.
Higher accountability in exchange for more pay.
Vet current officers and future recruits for extremism and science denialism.
We can't secure public safety if we continue to actively endanger public health.
We must pass the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act.
