Congress Likely To Miss Police Reform Deadline

Nancy Pelosi set a deadline for Congress to pass police reform by the anniversary of George Floyd's death. However, the deadline is unlikely to be met as negotiators focus on comprehensive legislation. The George Floyd Justice and Policing Act, passed by the House, includes banning chokeholds and no-knock warrants, and addresses qualified immunity, a major point of contention. Negotiators, including Karen Bass, Cory Booker, and Tim Scott, remain optimistic about reaching an agreement despite past failures.
