To: President Donald J. Trump and Attorney General Jefferson Sessions

Would you call the comment lines for the President and Attorney General for police accountability?

Sign an executive order enforcing/expanding federal bans on discriminatory policing and strengthen police accountability and investigate policing practices in EVERY state to include prison deaths as well as fatalities!!!!

https://killedbypolice.net is the most accurate tracking of fatal US killings, started May 1,2013
The Huffington Post investigated over 100 agencies to trace silence prison deaths, such as Sandra Bland.

Why is this important?

#BlackLivesMatter
If politicians are now held accountable so should law enforcement. This practice is a modern day form of lynching and is quite unacceptable in America! 2.5 times the rate of white lives are taking yearly when it comes to black and brown (minorities). More than 2 deaths a day occurring INSIDE the prison system; 32% from 2000-2013, 1/3 commit suicide mostly in a three day period.

The ACLU want it to be mandatory that police account for every death.
Also as of June 8, 2015 Many Maryland organizations set policy principles which include:
1. Structures that provide meaningful, participation of civilians in our policing policies and practices.
2. Mechanisms to ensure that police officers and civilians all receive fair, equal treatment in any investigation of criminal behavior or misconduct.
3. Accessible and transparent process for community members and crime victims to communicate with police, report complaints and inform the public of police misconduct.
4. Enhanced training, rules, selection policies, and oversight to eliminate biased policing and unnecessary violence towards civilians.
5. Accountability when officers violate people's rights or fail to report violations.
6. Strengthening of bonds between community and police.

If the Same Gender Loving Community can move, with the help of the SCOTUS this then we can act to end slavery once and for all. The Congress is yet to act on restoring Section 4 of the Voting Rights Act of '65 to not allow Southern states to suppress the vote by intimidation and requirements of unaffordable ID (TX) SIGN this and pass it on
