Tim Scott on policing overhaul negotiations: It will be 'very hard' to meet June deadline
CNN
The top Republican negotiator of a broad policing reform bill said that the two sides remain far apart on a number of issues that go beyond the key sticking point of qualified immunity and include many other issues that they're finding "really hard" to resolve.
GOP Sen. Tim Scott of South Carolina also said the bipartisan group needs to have legislative text in the next two weeks, or it'll be "very hard" to meet their deadline to have an agreement before the end of June, when a two-week July Fourth recess begins. "It's a little more complicated than just the top four or five issues that we've been covering, because the devil in the details of the actual body of the pieces of legislation are complicated and there are very big differences," Scott said.More Related News
