A look at Trump’s executive order on police procedures

(AP) — President Donald Trump has signed an executive order aimed at curbing police brutality by directing federal dollars to those police departments that meet certain credentialing standards on the use of force.

The executive action also makes it harder for those officers with a troubled history from getting hired by other departments.

The order requires the attorney general to create a database tracking terminations, criminal convictions and civil judgments against law enforcement officers for excessive use-of-force.
