@QueenRamonda When Republicans talk about "tort reform," they want to reduce or eliminate the right to get compensation against professionals who injure you. Against police, we need reform in the other direction (and not to lose the ability to get compensation when we are injured). Tell the people who represent you to support legislation to end qualified immunity. (Queen Ramonda knows this; I mention it for anyone who does not.) @IronMan @GlennGriffin8

Trump officials claim there is no systemic racism in policing as protests sweep US

Several Trump administration officials on Sunday denied the existence of systemic racism in law enforcement, even as protests across the U.S. demand broad changes to policing and the rallying cry "defund the police" spreads.

Is this perfect? No.

Should it have taken this long? No.

Do I support it? Yes.

Will I work to elect more people who will pass police reform? Until the end.

It's a start but more needs to be done. We will stay in the streets until it is.
