New York governor Andrew Cuomo signed into law on Friday a sweeping package of police accountability measures that received new backing following protests against George Floyd-s killing, including one allowing the release of officers- long-withheld disciplinary records.

The measures were approved earlier this week by the state-s Democratic-led Legislature. Some of the bills had been proposed in the years past and failed to win approval, but lawmakers moved with new urgency in the wake of massive, nationwide demonstrations over Floyd-s death.
