Lawmakers banned the Louisville Metro Police Department from using no-knock warrants on Thursday amid growing outcry over the death of Breonna Taylor, a Black woman who was fatally shot in her own home by officers earlier this year.

The Louisville Metro Council unanimously passed the measure, known as Breonnas Law Thursday. It bans the use of so-called no-knock warrants that had allowed police officers to enter a residence without warning or without identifying themselves.

Breonnas Law also mandates that LMPD officers wear operating body cameras when executing any warrant and retain the recordings for at least five years. The passage comes amid protests across the U.S. calling for an end to systemic racism and violent policing tactics that disproportionately affect people of color.

Louisville Mayor Greg Fischer said he planned to sign the law as soon as it hits my desk.

I suspended use of these warrants indefinitely last month, and wholeheartedly agree with Council that the risk to residents and officers with this kind of search outweigh any benefit, the mayor wrote on Twitter. This is one of many critical steps on police reform that weve taken to create a more peaceful, just, compassionate and equitable community.
