Police agencies would have to report misconduct payouts, creating a public database.
Federal, state, and local police agencies would have to report details about payments for officer misconduct. This information would go into a public online database. Currently, no national system shares this data.
Today, no national rule requires federal, state, and local police agencies to consistently collect and report detailed information about money paid out for officer misconduct. If this bill becomes law, these agencies would have to collect and report this data to the Attorney General, who would then create a public, searchable online database for everyone to access. State and local agencies that don't follow these rules could lose up to 10 percent of certain federal funds.
