Currently, police unions are allowed to collectively bargain with government officials over the methods used to hold police officers accountable for misconduct. Proponents argue that collective bargaining stands in the way of accountability. Opponents of limiting collective bargaining argue that more intense criticism of police will disincentivize officers from doing their jobs resulting in crime rates going up.

Yes, police unions should not be using collective bargaining to protect officers that fail to uphold their conduct in the line of duty.
@97BRPG83yrs3Y
Yes and make it easier to terminate police officers for gross misconduct
@9XGLDHW7mos7MO
I am unsure what this means but I believe that police misconduct should be handled much harsher than it is now. Police officers are supposed to protect people, not needlessly harm people.
