More about CPAC:
The Civilian Police Accountability Council (CPAC) is a legislative reform proposal currently in the Chicago City Council’s Public Safety committee. This proposal would create a democratically elected group with the sole purpose of ensuring police in Chicago are accountable to the citizens they serve.
