This is a continuation of the conversation about police reform proposed by the IACP, the International Association of Police. The IACP calls for police reform now. The propositions of this episode include utilization of a national use of force database, national standards for discipline and termination, and a mandate decertification database. To fulfill the training requirements needed to ensure each officer is held to the same standard, it would require additional funds. Diversity training is included to challenge bias against communities of color. 

The police need to have officers that are educated and diverse. However, the police force is currently having mass exoduses of officers due to the current coverage in the media. It is hard to retain and hire officers that would fit this description. Defund the police movement has made it harder to keep talented officers. Additionally, defunding the police has led to a cut in preventative services. Everyone agrees that police reform is needed. The IACP pleads with Congress to pass police reform now with these proposed solutions. We can advocate for police reforms by reaching out to our congress people and expressing concerns to pass police reform now. We can all agree that police reform is needed now. We can band together to pressure Congress into passing the much need police reform policies.
