Bill overview
This bill directs the Attorney General to create a pilot program to study how effective continuous training programs using body-worn cameras are in improving policing and community relations. The program will provide grants to states and local governments to implement these training initiatives. The goal is to determine if ongoing review and feedback from supervisors on body-worn camera footage can lead to better policing practices. A report on the program’s findings will be submitted to Congress after one year.
