When George Floyd gasped his final breath last May after a Minneapolis police officer was captured on viral video kneeling on his neck, Black Lives Matter protests swept the nation and world. Yet the anguish, demonstrations and demands for an end to police brutality haven’t halted the violence; more than 100 unarmed people have been killed or brutalized by police since then. Rep. Karen Bass (D-CA) is still fighting for substantive change. On Wednesday, she and Rep. Jerrold Nadler (D-NY), chair of the House Judiciary Committee, reintroduced the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act of 2021.   The bill is a comprehensive approach, intended to hold police accountable, change the culture of law enforcement, and empower communities. It also seeks to build trust between law enforcement and the communities they serve, by addressing systemic racism and bias in order to help save lives.
