Murders have doubled in Minneapolis since 2020, and yet city Democrats are worried about finding more bureaucrats to babysit their police department.

There are mixed feelings about a long-awaited agreement between Minneapolis and the federal government to bring reform to the city's police department.

While the City of Minneapolis waits for a federal judge to sign off on a consent decree proposed by the U.S. Justice Department, Mayor Jacob Frey is stressing the positives that will flow from the 170-page agreement.

The federal consent decree formalizes many policies that the police department put in place when the world’s attention was on Minneapolis after George Floyd’s murder in 2020 that are also in the settlement with the Minnesota Department of Human Rights.
