The choice is clear. You can either vote for republicans who will continue to increase police budgets or you can vote for democrats who will feign solemnity and concern every time someone gets killed by cops and then continue to increase police budgets

The George Floyd Justice in Policing 2021 passed the Dem House, only failed in Senate because Manchin & Sinema wouldn't allow filibuster reform. I know what you mean; even that bill increased funding. But a broad brush on the issue of police reform isn't accurate. GOP MUCH worse.

It's also a crappy bill that increases police funding, so, no.

News flash: Manchin & Sinema are Democrats and there has been plenty of indication that they are merely the rotating villains of the moment. Where is any Dem really using the bully pulpit on this issue?

The George Floyd bill is a slap in the face to his family and gives cops even more money. You should be ashamed.

Be quiet. You're not helping

The Majority Leader can place any bill on the floor for a vote - at any time - at which point fifty one votes decides the issue. There has not been a filibuster in generations.
