Bill > S3414

This bill, known as the Justice for Breonna Taylor Act, aims to prohibit the use of "no-knock warrants" by law enforcement. A no-knock warrant allows officers to enter a property without first announcing their presence and purpose, which can be dangerous for both residents and officers. The bill would prevent federal law enforcement officers from executing any warrant unless they first provide notice of their authority and purpose. Furthermore, it would condition federal funding for state and local law enforcement agencies, meaning that starting in the first fiscal year after the bill becomes law, any state or local agency receiving funds from the Department of Justice would be prohibited from executing warrants that do not require officers to announce themselves before forcibly entering a premises. This measure is intended to increase transparency and safety in law enforcement operations, particularly in situations where warrants are being served.
