Strengthening and Unleashing America's Law Enforcement To Pursue Criminals and Protect Innocent Citizens

What it means

This order empowers law enforcement by providing legal protection, resources, and military equipment to police officers. It directs the Attorney General to review and potentially end consent decrees that limit police actions, while holding local officials accountable who restrict law enforcement activities.

Expected impact

• Increased federal support for local police through legal resources, training, and military equipment
• Potential reversal of police reform measures implemented through consent decrees
• Possible conflicts with state and local governments that have enacted police reform policies
• Enhanced legal protections for law enforcement officers accused of misconduct during duty
• Development of new policing tactics using military and national security assets
