Current through 2024 Public Law 457
No state or municipal law enforcement officer or law enforcement agency shall engage in racial profiling. For purposes of this chapter, "racial profiling" means the detention, interdiction or other disparate treatment of an individual on the basis, in whole or in part, of the racial or ethnic status of such individual, except when such status is used in combination with other identifying factors seeking to apprehend a specific suspect whose racial or ethnic status is part of the description of the suspect, which description is timely and reliable.
