The Minneapolis City Council has approved a consent decree with the federal government to reform police training and use-of-force policies following the murder of George Floyd. The agreement aims to prioritize human life, professionalism, and respect in law enforcement activities. It comes after a scathing Department of Justice critique of the city’s police, citing racial discrimination and rights violations. Assistant Attorney General Kristen Clarke stated that Floyd’s death has sparked a national reckoning and the consent decree will guide reforms to heal the community and build trust between law enforcement and the public.
