Bill overview
The End Racial and Religious Profiling Act of 2021 (ERRPA) aims to eliminate racial and religious profiling by law enforcement at the federal, state, and local levels. It requires federal agencies to establish policies and procedures to prevent profiling, while state, local, and tribal agencies must do so as a condition of receiving grant funding. The bill also mandates data collection, establishes a process for complaints, and authorizes civil lawsuits against agencies engaging in discriminatory practices. Furthermore, it includes provisions for data analysis and reporting on racial profiling trends.
