Fox News
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., seemed to disagree with Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., after the House member said on Twitter that policing in the U.S. "can't be reformed" and should be eliminated altogether.
"Look, we all know we have to root out systemic bias in law enforcement and we feel the best way to do that is the Justice in Policing Act," Schumer said, referring to the bill inspired by the death of George Floyd. "I don't know if it passed the House this year, but it passed it last year, and we are making every effort to move it forward in Senate," Schumer added, stating that he will put the bill on the Senate floor for a vote.More Related News
