qualified immunity reform movements

Qualified immunity reform movements aim to change laws that currently protect police officers and government officials from being held legally responsible for certain actions. Supporters argue this makes it too difficult for victims to seek justice for misconduct. The reforms seek to clarify or limit these protections, making it easier to hold public officials accountable when they violate individuals' rights. Proponents believe this encourages better behavior and accountability, while opponents worry it might reduce effective law enforcement. Overall, the movement seeks to strike a balance between protecting lawful actions and ensuring accountability for misconduct.
