Governor Evers’ Police Reform Package Includes Community Outreach

Governor Evers is including one-million dollars for community outreach in his police reform package. The governor introduced nine pieces of legislation on Friday he says will hold police officers across the state accountable and increase transparency for folks concerned about police brutality. The package would impose a statewide set of rules for police, ban chokehold and no-knock warrants, and spend a million dollars on community outreach. Some of the ideas have been introduced in the past, but didn’t go anywhere at the state Capitol.
