    In 2016, over 1,700 California peace officers were involved in incidents resulting in serious injury or death. This resolution supports Assembly Bill 931, which addresses use of force by peace officers. It was passed by the California Democratic Party African American Caucus due to disproportionate effects of injuries and homicides on the African American community, which are considered health and safety issues. The resolution encourages state legislators and the governor to work with the bill's authors to enact it into law.
