Indianapolis City-County Council Republicans failed to rein in the power of the city’s civilian-led police oversight board, leading to a bill that would make it advisory-only and apply to all current and future boards in the state. The General Orders Board has been criticized for its binding decision-making authority over IMPD policies.
