Senator Rand Paul (R-Ky.) on Thursday introduced a bill to ban no-knock warrants, which let law enforcement officials enter a residence forcibly without having to announce their purpose or identifying themselves as police.

Rand said in a press release that the bill is named in memory and honor of Breonna Taylor, who was killed in her home during a police raid, conducted under a no-knock warrant.
