One major sticking point is chokeholds.
Senate Republicans unveiled police reform legislation Wednesday that aims to change policing procedures and beef up accountability of police departments but falls short of another, more aggressive police reform bill making its way through the Democratic-led House, setting up a clash between the two chambers.
During a press conference unveiling the GOP legislation, Scott said some people „enjoy“ talking about systemic racism. „We are not a racist country,” he added. “We deal with racism because there is racism in the country… Both are true. They are not mutually exclusive.” Scott went on to talk about his own experiences with police and recalled how he was recently pulled over and given a warning for not turning on his turn signal early enough on a turn.
