Attorney General Josh Shapiro, Pennsylvania lawmakers call for banning chokeholds
Pennsylvania Attorney General Josh Shapiro, along with members of Congress and law enforcement, is calling for Pennsylvania to enact a chokehold ban.
“In my office, and this is important. Chokeholds are not used as a restraint,” said Shapiro. “We don’t train our agents to use chokeholds and we don’t use them period. This practice isn’t included in the training that most commonwealth police officers receive.”
