"NYPD Data Mandate Sparks Political Battle in New York City"
TL;DR Summary
The New York City Council has passed the How Many Stops Act, requiring police officers to record the race, age, and gender of individuals they approach during investigations, in an effort to improve data collection and prevent unlawful encounters with young people of color. Mayor Eric Adams has expressed objections to certain elements of the law, but it is set to take effect in July, aiming to provide greater transparency in police interactions with the public.
