The Defense of Police Act was introduced by Senator Joe Keene following the tragic events of White Night in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Following the ratification of DOPA, a pilot program was initiated in Tulsa. The legislation led to an 80% drop in crime in the city and was considered such a success that other cities including Atlanta, New Orleans, and Denver wanted to initiate a masked police program of their own.[1]

The law requires police to wear masks to conceal their identities from criminals and the public.
