Nearly one year after promising swift and bold changes to policing laws, Delaware Democrats are finally pushing a bill to allow public access to records that have been kept secret by the Law Enforcement Officers Bill of Rights.
The bill, made public on Tuesday, would also allow state and local governments to create civilian review boards, made up of non-officers, to hear and have a say in police discipline.
It s one of three bills that progressive Democratic lawmakers announced on Tuesday. The other two would change police use of force laws.
