“Despite continued profiling, harassment, terror and killing of Black communities, local and federal decision-makers continue to invest in the police, which leaves Black people vulnerable and our communities no safer.”

Biden’s reform ideas mirror a bill Democratic leaders in Congress proposed this week where they listed initiatives like a national ban on chokeholds by police and lowering the federal threshold for when cops can be charged with using excessive force.

Biden also said in his USA Today article that he believes in “collecting data regarding police use of force and violations of use of force standards, and requiring training for officers regarding racial and religious bias and their duty to intervene if another officer is abusing his or her power.”
