Don’t Defund, Develop: A Policing Contract for Public Safety

The question of how to both support law enforcement and appropriately demand accountability is more important than ever. Join Dr. Derek Cohen, TPPF’s Policy Director for Right on Crime, as he outlines TPPF’s Contract for Public Safety, a series of reforms to provide needed protection for members of law enforcement and, at the same time, hold police accountable for inappropriate actions. He’ll be joined by retired sheriff Currie Myers and former officer Randy Peterson who leads TPPF’s police training sessions.
