Establishes crime of law enforcement officer choking another person; designated as George Floyd's Law.

S 1494, named "George Floyd's Law," makes it a first-degree crime for law enforcement officers to knowingly choke another person by pressing on their throat, windpipe, or carotid artery, hindering breathing or blood flow to the brain. It directly affects police officers while they are performing their duties, prohibiting tactics like chokeholds that were used in George Floyd's death. Violating this law carries penalties of 10-20 years in prison, up to $200,000 in fines, or both. The bill takes immediate effect and aligns with New Jersey's 2020 ban on chokeholds except in deadly force situations.
