Jerry Brown Signs New Racial Profiling Legislation

Jerry Brown Signs New Racial Profiling Legislation

California Governor, Jerry Brown signed a legislation this weekend that not only gave activists something to cheer for, but made the job of being a police officer a lot more difficult. The legislation will require law enforcement to collect data on the race of the people they encounter, as a way to fight bias.

It’ll require agencies to include information on the race of the person stopped, the reason for the stop and whether the stop resulted in a citation or arrest. This kind of sound likes racial profiling, the very thing this legislation is supposed to be stopping.

Hear what cops have to say about it on the next page.
