ENSURE FINANCIAL ACCOUNTABILITY FOR OFFICERS AND POLICE DEPARTMENTS THAT KILL OR SERIOUSLY INJURE CIVILIANS

Remove contract provisions, local policies, and provisions in state Law Enforcement Officers’ Bills of Rights laws that:

  • Require officers to be given paid administrative leave or paid desk-duty during an investigation following a police shooting or other use of deadly force
  • Prevent officers from receiving unpaid suspensions as discipline for misconduct or allow officers to use vacation or discretionary time to pay themselves while on suspension
  • Allow officers to receive paid leave or paid desk-duty after being charged with a felony offense

Who needs to act? You; Governor Andy Beshear; Kentucky State Legislators; Mayor Greg Fischer; Louisville Metro Police Department; Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office; River City FOP; Louisville Metro Council
