Each state should have a publicly accessible database of all peace officers employed by the state on a federal, state, or local level, and require all local police departments to give this information, including but not limited to:

  • First and Last Name
  • DOB
  • Badge Number
  • Police Department
  • Position within the Police Department

People should be allowed to ask for a police officer’s information, including name and badge number, or any similar information, unless there is a reasonable circumstance where giving this information to a private person would cause harm to an investigation or individual.
