Black Americans are just
13% of the population in the United States. But in 2017, they accounted
for over 25% of police killings. With that disparity, it is clear that
there is something systematically broken with our policing system.

That’s why, alongside Rep. Lacy Clay, I introduced the PEACE Act in
Congress. This critical legislation would make it so that federal law
enforcement officers must only use lethal force as a last resort, meaning
that they must engage in de-escalation tactics when possible.

[ [link removed] ]Now, the House Judiciary Committee is taking up this critical issue.
Can we count on you to add your grassroots endorsement to the PEACE Act?

[ [link removed] ]Sign your name

Michael Brown. Eric Garner. Tamir Rice. Stephon Clark. Breonna Taylor.
Tony McDade. George Floyd. Their stories, and so many more, are
unacceptable.

The facts don’t lie: Police are statistically more likely to employ the
use of force when it comes to Black and Brown Americans than anyone else.
Allowing that to continue is a failure of governance and leadership, full
stop.

[ [link removed] ]Passing the PEACE Act is a critical first step to correcting the
systemic injustices that led to the deaths of our neighbors. That’s why
we’re asking you: Will you sign onto the PEACE Act today?

As this administration employs the use of increasingly militaristic
tactics to suppress communities crying out for justice, changing the rules
to prevent them from unnecessary use of force is ever more a critical
priority. Thank you for your support.

Sincerely,

Ro Khanna
