“They're [Republicans] going to have to face the reality of police brutality, the rally for the need for justice in policing and the recognition that there are many, many, many good people in law enforcement – but not all – and that we have to address those concerns," Speaker Pelosi told CBS News.

The Democratic leader’s outrageous, and false, rhetoric is beneath that of a speaker of the House. In response to the death of George Floyd, Senate Republicans brought forth a monumental piece of police reform legislation and have continually asked Democrats to have a meaningful debate, in order to hopefully find legislative compromise. Republicans are leading the charge on police reform, in good faith, and Democrats are set to torpedo the effort rather than come to the table to discuss the issue.
