In that order
Through what kind of measures? Keep in mind that police forces are generally state and local.

I want him to focus and work on police reform with the states.

Better training, less funding for tactical vehicles that sit in a parking lot for decades not doing anything, and generally better accountability with the brass. Less corruption.

1. Reunite kids with parents
2. Get on top of Covid insofar as possible; mandate masks and refuse entry to hospital for those who get sick and don't wear them. **** those arseholes.
3. Back into Paris Accords
4. Tackle racial equality
5. Cure cancer
6. Foster world peace
7. Make contact with alien intelligence
8. Prove the existence, or non-existence, of God
9. Reunite Pink Floyd

Note: those last five can wait till his second term

Stacking the Supreme Court with judges who actually respect the the fourth amendment would help. And tbh the second amendment as well. You shouldn’t just be able to shoot someone for having a weapon in a country where the weapon is legal. With today’s technology there’s really very little reason for the cop and the perp to interact at all on a basic traffic stop. The whole roll down your window bull**** should be a 4th amendment violation right there.

Tickets should be on a sliding scale based on ability to pay.

And just text your titties bitch. This ain’t 1999.

If he can actually get through a $15 minimum wage I'm at least willing to not hate him.
