One Year After Breonna Taylor Killing, Kentucky Legislature Advancing Limited Police Reforms
Update: 2021-03-09
Description
Police reform wasn’t on the radar of most Kentucky lawmakers when Louisville police killed Breonna Taylor last March. But after months of protests calling for change, politicians started to pay attention. Demonstrations led to some new policies—the city of Louisville passed a ban on no-knock warrants and Lexington temporarily suspended them. And at the statewide level, police reforms are moving forward through the state legislature, but they’re not everything the protesters hoped for. Democratic Rep. Attica Scott’s bill to ban no-knock warrants, Breonna’s Law for Kentucky , will get its first hearing in the House Judiciary Committee this week.
