The police reform agenda includes making prior disciplinary records of law enforcement officers transparent, and banning chokeholds. New York state's attorney general will work as an independent prosecutor for deaths of unarmed civilians caused by law enforcement.
NEW YORK, June 5 (Xinhua) -- Governor of the U.S. state of New York, Andrew Cuomo, announced a reform agenda to address police brutality, especially against minority communities, following the death of Minnesota man George Floyd.
The "Say Their Name" agenda will make prior disciplinary records of law enforcement officers transparent, ban chokeholds and make false race-based 911 reports a hate crime, said Cuomo at his daily briefing.
Meanwhile, the state's attorney general will work as an independent prosecutor for deaths of unarmed civilians caused by law enforcement, he said.

First the guys on your picture aren’t cops and I also fail to see the violation of rights on it.
They have been talking about the same thing for 50 years and the liberals are running all these cities So what is the problem. Is it that their leadership sucks.
I agree. What we are seeing is new and very insidious. If you really think about, what is being said is: If too many black people are in jail, we just need to redefine what crime is.
The fake-911 call as Hate Crime is pretty disturbing too. Who decides if its fake or not?
