Most people won't notice — orders three Justice Department reports on attacks against police and officer mental health
The details
Most people would see no change in daily life. The Justice Department would have to write three reports for Congress about police safety and health. Each is due within 270 days, about nine months, after the bill becomes law. The first report would count attacks that target officers for being police, including ambushes. It would also review officer training and the federal program that helps pay for bulletproof vests. The second would study adding a new crime-data category for hostile acts against officers that fall short of crimes. It is a study only and creates no new category. The third would look at officers' mental health, including stress, screening, and peer-support programs. No new rules or new money come with these reports.
