‘We must dismantle our system’: Dems call for ‘total’ police reform after Derek Chauvin’s conviction in George Floyd’s death
https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/poli...floyds-death/ar-BB1fS0Ni?ocid=iehp&li=BBnb7Kz
New York Rep. Mondaire Jones, a progressive Democrat and the first openly gay Black man elected to Congress, said Chauvin’s conviction on all three counts ensures the white former officer is held accountable for his “heinous, unconscionable” murder of George Floyd on May 25, 2020.
“It is time that we address the violence of systemic racism in America in its totality. Police brutality in America is just the latest chapter in the legacy of racial violence that dates back to chattel slavery, lynch mobs, and Jim Crow — a legacy that has robbed us of countless Black lives.”
New York Rep. Jamaal Bowman, a progressive who represents parts of the Bronx and Westchester County, suggested Congress needs to go beyond adopting the Floyd-named law.
“These verdicts are correct — but the system is still racist and wrong. We must dismantle our system of policing and reimagine public safety and public health,” Bowman tweeted. “We need social services and resources that heal our communities. Not policing that harms and occupies our neighborhoods.”
