After Judge Peter Cahill read the verdict in the trial of former Minneapolis Police officer Derek Chauvin, Ange Hillz created a portrait of Floyd within 24 hours, the magazine reported.

It lowers the criminal intent standard from willful to knowing or reckless to convict officers for misconduct. It also limits qualified immunity as a defense to liability and authorizes the Department of Justice to issue subpoenas in investigations. 

In addition to those changes, the bill will create a national registry to compile information on complaints and records of police misconduct. 

It passed in the House and is now sitting in the Senate, waiting for approval.
