Dozens of activists gathered in Harlem on Saturday for the third annual "Youth March for Police Reform."

Organizers from Black Lives Matter of Greater New York say the focus this year was on a new a bill being sponsored by Bronx Assemblywoman Nathalia Fernandez.

The Andrew Kearse Act would mandate that law enforcement officers provide individuals in police custody with immediate access to medical care, if needed.

It's named after a Bronx man who is said to have become unresponsive while in police custody in upstate New York, after repeatedly asking for medical assistance.

"Those in police custody deserve the best protection possible,” Fernandez said. “You're in police custody. They're supposed to protect you so for this instance where he wasn't given the attention when he asked for it, when he begged for it. I want to hope that doesn't happen again."

The organization says the bill would be the most influential police reform legislation, since Eric Garner was placed in a fatal chokehold by police in 2014.
