LAWMAKERS OVERRIDE HOGAN’S POLICE REFORM VETOES

State lawmakers have overridden Governor Larry Hogan’s vetoes of police reform.  General Assembly members decided on the overrides this weekend.  The assembly overrode the Governor’s vetoes to nix statewide use-of-force policy and public access to police officer disciplinary records.  The Governor says the measures would have a negative impact on officer morale and damage recruitment and retention.
