SB 114: Prohibit law enforcement from using quotas for arrests, citations

SB 114 bans law enforcement agencies from setting mandatory targets for arrests or citations. It directly affects police departments and officers who previously may have been required to meet specific numerical goals. The bill creates a new state law section (109.70) making it illegal to use such quotas. This is a direct policy change prohibiting a specific practice, not a broader reform.
