WASHINGTON, May 25 ― Two years after African American George Floyd was murdered by a white police officer in a Minneapolis street, President Joe Biden will today sign an executive order further regulating federal law enforcement.
The text provides for the creation of a national register to list all reports, disciplinary procedures and complaints concerning members of federal law enforcement agencies, the administration said. The order also prohibits the use, again at the federal level, of carotid artery strangulation or compression techniques, except in exceptional situations.
The Biden administration will also ask federal law enforcement agencies to expand the use of body cameras during arrests and searches, and to release the images quickly in the event of a fatality. The decree also states that lethal force should only be used when “necessary,” and restricts the use of military equipment during police operations.
