The New Jersey State Bar Association supports A4175 (Park), which calls for – among other things – a periodic review by the Attorney General of use-of-force policies and establishing and maintaining procedures for reporting incidents involving use-of-force. The bill is an important step to address the need for a practical approach to review data and confirm that use-of-force policies are applied uniformly and that law enforcement are consistently taking reasonable and appropriate action. For these reasons, the NJSBA urges you to vote yes.
