Requires Attorney General to revise law enforcement use of force policy; implements certain reforms.

New Jersey's S 2968 requires the Attorney General to revise the state's law enforcement use-of-force policy, which hasn't been updated since 2001. The bill mandates specific changes, including requiring officers to use de-escalation tactics and alternatives to force when possible, limiting force to what is reasonably necessary for the situation, and reporting excessive force to supervisors. It also sets clear guidelines for firearm use, bystander safety, handling complaints, and training on vulnerable populations. The revised policy will apply to all New Jersey law enforcement agencies and officers.
