SR 26/27-024:Denouncing the Racial and Gender Discrimination Used Against Students by the University of California Police Department (UCPD) in Order to Foster Equitable Campus Safety

If passed, this resolution would denounce racial and gender discrimination by the University of California Police Department (UCPD) against students, citing disproportionate stops of Black individuals. It urges the University and UCPD to comply with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and non-discrimination policies, and calls for the UCPD to publish annual California Racial and Identity Profiling Act (RIPA) analyses. Additionally, it calls upon the Chancellor to guarantee student seats on the UC Police Accountability Board (PAB) and the Internal Accountability Board (IAB) and to publish annual complaints including demographic data, and for a comprehensive audit of UCPD's bias, gender-responsive, and trauma-informed training.
