More legislation in Springfield could impact Illinois law enforcement.

Clinton Chief of Police Ben Lowers says one piece of legislation that - for now - is not being pursued is limiting law enforcement in what violations they stop vehicles on the road. 

While on the back burner for now, Chief Lowers says any law like this in the future would prevent preventative action from being taken by law enforcement that would potentially allow criminals on the streets to be taken into custody.

Quotas is renewing its conversation in Springfield and Chief Lowers points out quotas were banned several years ago and he notes it has never been a practice in Clinton under his administration.

Chief Lowers says that law is like many others and takes away power from police departments and agencies to effectively do their jobs.
