DEMOCRATS IN THE U.S. SENATE HAVE BROUGHT CONSIDERATION OF SOUTH CAROLINA REPUBLICAN SENATOR TIM SCOTT’S POLICE REFORM BILL TO A HALT.
IOWA REPUBLICAN JONI ERNST SAYS IT’S DISAPPOINTING THAT PARTISAN POLITICS ARE DELAYING ANY CHANCE OF REFORMS BEING PASSED:
OC………IMPORTANT LEGISLATION. :22
ERNST SAYS THE SENATE DEMOCRATS HAVE BEEN GIVEN A CHANCE TO EXPLAIN WHAT THEY DON’T LIKE ABOUT THE BILL, BUT HAVEN’T REALLY DONE THAT:
OC………BEHIND THE BILL. :16
ERNST SAYS THERE WAS A CHALLENGE ABOUT IF POLICE USE OF CHOKE HOLDS WERE EVEN MENTIONED IN THE BILL, WHICH SENATOR SCOTT QUICKLY PROVED WRONG:
OC…….ON AND ON AND ON. :26
ERNST SAYS SHE IS THANKFUL IOWA WAS ABLE TO PASS A POLICE REFORM BILL WITH STATE REPUBLICANS AND DEMOCRATS WORKING TOGETHER TO ENACT A MEASURE.
