After Rodney King’s brutal beating, nothing essentially modified within the nation. Years later, we had cellphone cameras, and now we have now seen video after video after video of individuals being beat and folks being killed. That is the rationale for the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act. Two measures of the invoice maintain law enforcement officials accountable, after which different measures of the invoice help elevating the requirements and accreditation means of policing within the United States.” “George Floyd gasped his last words, ‘I can’t breathe,’ and ignited a nationwide reckoning on the racial injustice and police brutality that exists in our country. ‘I can’t breathe.’ Since then, Americans from every corner of the country, and actually people throughout the world, have taken to the streets to peacefully protest violence against Black Americans. Yet despite these protests, violence continues. We cannot accept this epidemic of injustice, which is why we will pass and send — well, we have passed now — we have passed and sent to the Senate and to president, the president, the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act, so it can become the law of the land.”
