About this listen
The families of Breonna Taylor, Sonya Massey, and Tyre Nichols, all victims of police violence, called for the Senate to pass the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act at the Congressional Black Caucus Conference. The families emphasized the urgent need for police accountability and highlighted the act's proposals, including a ban on chokeholds, no-knock warrants, and a national registry for police conduct. The bill, which aims to reform police practices, has been stalled in the Senate despite bipartisan support in the House and presidential backing. The families expressed frustration at the lack of progress and the continued occurrence of police brutality, emphasizing that Congress bears responsibility for the deaths of victims like their loved ones.
