Minneapolis City Council Approves Police Reforms Following George Floyd’s Death

The Minneapolis City Council has approved police reform measures in response to the death of George Floyd. The agreement with the federal government includes changes to police training and a review of use-of-force policies. This decision follows findings of systemic racism within the police force, highlighted by Floyd’s murder by officer Derek Chauvin in 2020. The reforms mandate police conduct with professionalism and respect, free from bias based on race, gender, or ethnicity. The police department will be placed under judicial supervision to ensure compliance.
