Police reform stopped during the current administration as the Department of Justice backed off from enforcing various court orders on some truly inept police departments. It will probably start up shortly after the current administration departs. How well it will be done remains to be seen.

Interesting it just stopped during this administration after not having been 100% fixed in previous ones.

  • There is no "100% fixed", only forward progress or regression. Forward progress was being made before the current administration; forward progress was stopped during this administration.

    • That’s such a vague characterization that I don’t even want to bother finding out what the person who says it thinks “progress” is.
