According to Fox news
The Baltimore Ravens sent a letter to Senate Major Leader Mitch McConnell on Monday urging the Republican senator to bring a George Floyd policing bill to the floor for a vote.
The Democrat-backed bill passed the House in June but has been stuck in limbo since. The bill would ban law enforcement from using chokeholds and no-knock warrants, end qualifying immunity, prohibit racial profiling from officers, mandate body cameras, and establish a system for police accountability.
“With yet another example of racial discrimination and police misconduct with the shooting of Jacob Blake a few days ago, we can no longer tolerate a system that has too often failed to serve, protect and value the lives of Black Americans,” the letter reads in part.
