New York Governor Andrew Cuomo on Monday called for a national ban on police use of chokeholds and excessive force as part of a reform of policing following the death of an unarmed black man in police custody in Minneapolis a week ago.

"It's not enough to come out and say 'I'm angry, I'm frustrated'," Cuomo told a daily briefing on the coronavirus. "The protesters are making a point. But you have to add the positive reform agenda."
