US Democrats legislation to return to introduce to the reform of the police

Nov 20,2023 6:31 pm

U.S. Democrats in Congress have proposed sweeping legislation on the reform of The American police, after weeks of protests against Police Brutality and racism.

The Bill would make it easier for the prosecution of police for misconduct, ban chokeholds, addresses, and racism.

you come from the Minneapolis legislators vowed to disband The City police.

The death of George Floyd in The Hands of a white officer there is national pressure for change triggered.

it was unclear, However, whether the Republicans supported the control of The Senate , the proposed judiciary in Policing the Act in the year 2020.

Mr. Floyd's brother is expected to testify to The House of representatives This Week in a hearing on the reform of The Police .

What does the invoice say?

The fairness in Policing Act of 2020 was introduced. on Monday of the top democratic legislators, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi , Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer , black senators Kamala Harris and Cory Booker and the members of the Congressional Black Caucus

The Bill , Mrs. Pelosi revealed read The Names of black men and women who have died in The Hands of The Police in the last few years.

The Bill forces the Federal Police to use body and dashboard cameras, ban chokeholds, eliminate unannounced raids known as "no-knock warrants", which will make it easier to hold The Police liable for civil rights violations, and calls upon the Federal funds, the local police will not be denied, that to make similar reforms.

"The martyrdom of George Floyd, the American Experience , a moment of national anguish, and as we grieve for The Black Americans of the Police Brutality ," Ms. Pelosi shot said.

"Today, this movement of the national anxiety is converted into a movement of national action".

The Bill making lynching a Federal crime, the limits for the sale of military weapons to The Police and the Ministry of justice to investigate The Authority of state and local police for evidence of Department-wide bias or misconduct.

It would also be a "National Police misconduct registry" - a database with complaints against The Police .

Some Republican leaders have said they would consider the Possibility of writing their own account, with a hearing scheduled in The Senate judiciary Committee next week.

However, members of the President trump The Party were largely restrained to the signaling support for the legislation.

In a break with his party, Republican Senator Mitt Romney on Sunday tweeted images of Lives of himself marching against the White house with Christian protesters, with the caption "Black matter. "

What are the chances of The Bill ?

The reform package, crafted by Democratic leaders in Congress, can be seen as the "official" position of The Party - at least for now. It is a seek, the head is to the part, more Drastic Measures that some on The Left , the insistence of the under the Motto of "defund The Police ,".

If the Democrats can get their liberal ranks In Line , you should be able to get the reforms passed in the chamber of deputies, where they have the majority. The Outlook is less certain in the Republican-controlled Senate - in particular, if Donald Trump sees the political advantage in trying to paint the democratic proposals as a threat to "law and order".

While there are certainly a lot of heated rhetoric from politicians during the presidential election season, The Real change can come at the end of local officials more directly responsible for the voters in the municipalities that have seen the largest protests.

The Call for the dissolution of The Police in Minneapolis, while mainly symbolic at this point could be the fact that fundamental changes are a very real Possibility - with or without Federal leadership.

This could be the beginning of a series of local experiments in policing reform, take very different forms in different parts of the United States.

they argue that The Police ' households should be reduced and the funds redirected to avoid social programs, unnecessary confrontation, and to heal the divide between the races.

President, Donald Trump has tried to make the cast of his expected presidential Challenger, Democrat Joe Biden , as a proponent of the defunding police, but Mr Biden campaign, denied on Monday that he is a supporter.

"As his Criminal Justice proposal has not made it clear, months ago, Vice President Biden believes that The Police should be defunded," said campaign spokesman Andrew Bates.

"He listens and shares The Deep sorrow and frustration of those calling for change and is driven to ensure that justice is done and that we put an end to this terrible pain. "
