What It Does
Data collection and reporting laws increase transparency into law enforcement policies, specifically how, and against whom, police use lethal and nonlethal force. These best-in-class state policies require state law enforcement agencies to collect data on all incidents in which officers use force against civilians and to report that data to the state—which must then publicly release state-wide and agency-specific data. Other states have policies on this topic that are incomplete, either requiring collection without reporting or publication or only requiring agencies to collect data on “serious” or lethal force.
