Stop Police Militarization
The steady flow of military weapons and gear to local police harms our communities. S 1856 institutes reforms to stop militarization while ensuring local police still have access to bulletproof vests and other protective equipment.

Senators Rand Paul (R-KY), Brian Schatz (D-HI), and Ron Wyden (D-OR) have reintroduced the Stop Militarizing Our Law Enforcement Act (S. 1856) to establish limitations and create greater transparency on the federal transfer of surplus military-grade equipment to state and local law enforcement agencies.
The bill institutes reforms to stop the steady supply of battlefield equipment from entering our communities and put safeguards in place to ensure that federal funds are used more appropriately.
The bill does not prohibit the transfer of defensive equipment, such as body armor.
I urge you to co-sponsor this bill and work to ensure its passage.
