2 Years After George Floyd’s Murder, POTUS To Sign Executive Order On Federal Policing

 MINNEAPOLIS — President Joe Biden is expected to sign an executive order on federal policing Wednesday at the White House, multiple source tell Minnesota Trending. It would be on the two-year anniversary of George Floyd’s death at the hands of former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin. The executive order comes after bipartisan negotiations in Congress to reform policing failed last year. The effort, which was sparked by Floyd’s death, was spearheaded by Republican Sen. Tim Scott of South Carolina, Democratic Sen. Cory Booker and Democratic Rep. Karen Bass. The Fraternal Order of Police (FOP) and the International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP) were also engaged in the bipartisan negotiations. Two sources told Minnesota Trending that the executive order will include sections on establishment of an accountability database of officers fired for misconduct, a ban on chokeholds and a restriction on no knock warrants at the federal level. Anti-bias training is expected to be included as well.
