The State Justice Department wants to hear from you on a new rule that calls for police to collect racial data during traffic stops.

Starting in January of 2011, all Wisconsin police will have to collect data to determine whether they stop minorities too often.

The Office of Justice Assistance and the Traffic Stop Data Collection Advisory Committee are preparing a rule to set up the data collection.

The committee will hold listening sessions in La Crosse on November 11th, Green Bay on November 12th and Milwaukee on November 18th.
