Bans no-knock warrants for federal police and limits them for state and local agencies getting federal funds.
This bill would stop federal police from using 'no-knock' warrants. These warrants let police enter a home without saying who they are. The bill would also ban state and local police from using these warrants if they get money from the Department of Justice. This means people would get a warning before officers enter their homes by force.
Currently, federal, state, and local police can carry out warrants without first saying who they are and why they are there. If this bill passes, federal officers would always need to give notice before entering. State and local agencies getting federal money would also need to do so, starting in the next government's budget year.
