Ending Qualified Immunity Act

This bill amends federal law (Section 1983) to eliminate qualified immunity as a defense in civil rights lawsuits. It would prevent government officials from avoiding liability by claiming they acted in good faith, believed their actions were lawful, or didn't know a right was clearly established at the time. This directly affects individuals who sue police, law enforcement, or other officials for violating constitutional rights. The change would apply to lawsuits filed after the bill's enactment, requiring officials to face liability under the original standard of Section 1983.
