NewsWK — New federal legislation introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives seeks to establish statutory standards regarding the criteria law enforcement officers may consider during enforcement actions.
The bill, designated as H.R. 10011 and titled the No Person’s Race, Ethnicity, Job, or Use of Dialect or Inflection is Cause for Enforcement Act, was recently filed into official congressional records, according to public legislative filings published by GovInfo.
