Overview
- Rep. Morgan McGarvey announced a renewed federal bill to prohibit no‑knock search warrants across the United States.
- Backers plan a Wednesday House Triangle event with Breonna Taylor’s mother, Tamika Palmer, Sens. Rand Paul and Cory Booker, and Reps. Yvette Clarke and Jasmine Crockett.
- Kentucky outlawed no‑knock warrants in 2021 after Louisville’s local ban in 2020, offering a model supporters want Congress to adopt nationally.
- The push follows former LMPD Det. Brett Hankison’s federal civil‑rights conviction and 33‑month sentence, which he is serving in New Jersey.
- In November, the Justice Department asked a court to release Hankison on bail during his appeal, and three other officers still face federal charges tied to the warrant application.
