According to a June 2020 poll, 82% of Americans agree that police use of chokeholds should be banned. 83% support racial profiling bans. 92% agree that police should wear body cameras. 89% agree on requiring officers to give their name, badge number, and a reason for the stop during police stops. 91% support independent investigations of misconduct in departments. And 75% support allowing police misconduct victims to sue departments for damages.
I don't understand how these aren't 100%

According to the most recent data available, departments received about $129 billion nationwide in 2020 from state and local governments,
I had no idea that police had such a huge fund. Depending on how they divided money it each state could have gotten $2 billion for their departments.
