Bill Summary
An act to add Section 7286.5 to the Government Code, relating to officers.
AI Summary
This bill prohibits law enforcement agencies in California from authorizing the use of carotid restraints or choke holds by their officers. It defines these terms as specific neck restraints that involve a substantial risk of restricting blood flow and may render a person unconscious. The bill requires local agencies to amend their use of force policies accordingly, which could result in state-mandated costs that would need to be reimbursed to local agencies and school districts under existing law.
