George Floyd's death: Three police-reform-plans-compared

Dec 1,2023 10:11 pm

President Trump under an executive order signed on for a series of reforms in the area of the police on Tuesday

Republican senators unveiled their plans for the improvement of the police work after the death of George Floyd. How is he in comparison with those who claim that the White house and Democrats? And what will succeed?

In the run-up to the national leadership from Washington, the police have started across the country, the intake of reforms on themselves.

police departments in major U.S. cities such as Denver, Chicago, and Phoenix have all banned chokeholds in the result of Mr. Floyd's death.

And the New York city Police Commissioner announced This Week that the anti-crime unit Officers , a team of approximately 600 civilian, would be dissolved.

But these patchwork efforts are supported by Federal legislation, the police reform mandatory nationwide.

Senate Republicans, Republican Senator Tim Scott leads his party's efforts to reform the police, house Democrats, Congressional Black Caucus Chairman representative Karen Bass presents the Democrats " plan to White House

After weeks of mass protests against the police use of violence and Institutional Racism in the United States, in the machinery of the Federal government, it, loops in action. Democrats in The House of representatives approved far-reaching reforms. Donald Trump signed an executive order to encourage the police to new guidelines for training and procedures.

Now the Senate Republicans have their own proposal, the move provides the legal basis for many of the presidents.

both parties have been able to move pretty quickly in an election year when the legislative services traditionally a few, underscores a national consensus on The Urgency of The Moment . Even so, the opportunities for cooperation on the issue are still far from safe.

Democrats can choose to make a modest compromise on what they see as the Republican half-measures would give their opponents a Victory and reduce the likelihood of more substantive reforms after the November elections.

you can close the Republicans broader democratic reforms, the police would hinder and put At Risk Officers , and at the same time prevents The Party with "law and order" as a campaign against the Democrats in the fall.

Even with pressure for action mounting, the two sides can decide in the end, is it better, the theme to the voters in November .
