The newly unveiled federal consent decree for the Minneapolis Police Department calls for a lot of the same changes as an earlier state reform plan — but the oversight document does include some new requirements.

The federal consent decree puts numerous policies in place to dictate how Minneapolis police officers must act.

The Minneapolis City Council has approved a consent decree agreement with the U.S. Department of Justice that will implement major reform within the Minneapolis Police Department. The agreement comes after a two-year investigation from the DOJ into the MPD's patterns and practices.
