Activists, Law Enforcement React To Historic Police Reform Legislation On Beacon Hill
PlayHouse and senate leaders on Beacon Hill announced Monday they'd reached an agreement on a landmark police reform and racial justice bill.
Up for a final vote at the State House Tuesday the 129-page proposal would create a new police accountability and oversight system, ban chokeholds, and set new limits on so-called no-knock warrants.
We hear reaction from Rev. Mariama White-Hammond of the New Roots AME Church in Dorchester, and Boston Police Sgt. Eddy Chrispin, president of the Massachusetts Association of Minority Law Enforcement Officers.
