Ohio Republicans push statewide police discipline database
Ohio House Republicans propose a 15 point bill to create a statewide police disciplinary database and require psychological testing for new officers.

It follows protests over George Floyd and Ohio’s violent incidents, with leaders urging professional policing and independent inquiries while clashing with critics over racism and policing reforms.
