LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST

 

AB 334, as introduced, Cooley. Peace officers: training: profiling of
motorcycle riders.

Existing law establishes the Commission on Peace Officer Standards and
Training in the Department of Justice and requires the commission to adopt
rules establishing minimum standards regarding the recruitment of peace
officers. Existing law requires the commission to develop guidelines and
implement courses of instruction regarding racial profiling, handling
domestic violence, hate crimes, and human trafficking, among others.

 

This bill would require the Commission on Peace Officer Standards and
Training to ensure that the profiling of motorcycle riders is addressed in
the course of basic law enforcement training and offered to law enforcement
officers in conjunction with existing training regarding profiling. The bill
would require all local law enforcement agencies to adopt a written policy
designed to condemn and prevent the profiling of motorcycle riders and to
review and audit any existing policies to ensure that those policies do not
enable or foster the practice of profiling motorcycle riders. Because this
bill would impose additional duties on local law enforcement agencies, this
bill would impose a state-mandated local program. 

 

The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies
and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory
provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement.

 

This bill would provide that, if the Commission on State Mandates determines
that the bill contains costs mandated by the state, reimbursement for those
costs shall be made pursuant to these statutory provisions.
