Date: March 3, 2021
Subject: Advancing the Left's All-Out Attack on the Police via the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act
Description: The George Floyd Justice in Policing Act of 2021, sponsored by Rep. Bass (D-CA), serves as an all-out attack on law enforcement and would have tremendous negative consequences on local communities and public safety. The bill contains numerous provisions that would expose officers to such great criminal and legal liabilities that they would be unable to properly carry out their duties as public servants. Additionally, the bill would essentially federalize local police departments, while doing nothing to address collective bargaining agreements which protect bad cops by making it nearly impossible to fire them. ACU opposes the promotion of lawlessness through the leftist notion of "defunding the police" and opposes this measure which harms public safety.
Result: Bill Passed, 220-212
