We’ve all seen the need for responsible reform. And while the vast majority of police are doing their job honorably, WE CAN ALL AGREE that there are real problems. WE CAN ALL AGREE that there must be increased training, communities must feel safe, and excessive use of force must never be allowed. We can also agree that the police should NOT be defunded.
Every American, regardless of race, deserves to live without fear of abuse or violence.
President Trump’s Executive Order on police reform and Sen. Tim Scott’s newly introduced JUSTICE Act are both excellent first steps in addressing police reform, community safety, and excessive use of force.
But the shocking reality is that there may not be the 60 votes needed to even BEGIN debate on this bill. There is a vote expected as soon as TODAY, and we only need 7 Democrats to join with 53 Republicans.
Our Government Affairs team is hard at work on Capitol Hill, and we believe there is a chance to actually make real reforms, but the Senate needs to hear from you TODAY.
Sign Our NEW Petition: Demand a Vote on Police Reform NOW.
