     &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Use of Force Accountability Act of 2021&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;This bill requires, as a condition of eligibility for funds under the Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant (JAG) program and the Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS) program, a state or Indian tribe to take certain actions with respect to investigating allegations of use of force by law enforcement officers.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Specifically, to be eligible for grant funds under the COPS program and JAG program, a state or Indian tribe must have in effect an independent investigation of law enforcement statute and a law or policy requiring the findings of an independent investigation to be referred for review and possible disciplinary action. The term&lt;em&gt; independent investigation of law enforcement statute&lt;/em&gt; means a statute requiring an independent investigation in a criminal matter involving allegations of use of force by a law enforcement officer that resulted in death or injury.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;The bill authorizes the Department of Justice to award grants to help states and Indian tribes implement an independent investigation of law enforcement statute.&lt;br&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
