Proposed California Bill Would Prohibit Use Of Police K-9s For Arrests, Crowd Control
Two California lawmakers introduced a bill Monday that would ban the police use of K9s from being used in apprehensions, arrests and crowd control.
Assemblymembers Corey Jackson, D-Perris, and Ash Kalra, D-San Jose, highlighted Black History Month as they introduced AB-742, saying they wanted to end a practice with a troubling history involving African American communities.
The bill was co-sponsored by the California chapter of the NAACP and the American Civil Liberties Union.
