ERRPA

The End Racial and Religious Profiling Act of 2023 (ERRPA) prohibits law enforcement agencies at all levels from engaging in racial profiling, defined as using race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, gender, or sexual orientation in stops and searches without specific evidence. The bill requires federal, state, local, and tribal law enforcement agencies to collect and submit data on stops and searches disaggregated by race, ethnicity, gender, and religion, and to implement training programs on racial profiling. It establishes grant programs to fund data collection demonstration projects and best practices development for eliminating racial profiling, with funds reserved for small and rural law enforcement agencies. The bill also mandates annual reports to Congress on racial profiling data and implementation progress, with enforcement available through civil actions for individuals or the government.
