Administration officials said President Donald Trump will sign an executive order on police reform. The order seeks to improve how police officers treat minorities by improving credentialing, training and mental health resources. According to Reuters, this comes after Trump’s “law and order” response to protests surrounding police brutality. Trump faced criticism from allies who think his response hurt his chances of re-election in November. Officials said the order would improve fired officers don’t get hired again and social workers work with law enforcement.
