George Floyd Justice in Policing Act

Mar. 3, 2021 | H.R. 1280

After George Floyd was murdered by a Minneapolis police officer, the labor movement demanded more accountability from law enforcement. Though not perfect, this bill would reform policing by banning chokeholds, expanding use of body cameras, ending racial profiling, demilitarizing our police forces and ending no-knock warrants. This bill passed the House on March 3, 2021.
