Left-wing lawmakers on Tuesday announced federal legislation to defund police and set up reparations for people who either are black or were harmed by cops.
Reps. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) and Ayanna Pressley (D-Mass.) are sponsors of the BREATHE Act, which was announced on a Zoom call. It has not yet been introduced.
“We can start to envision through this bill a new version for public safety — a new vision for public safety, one that protects and affirms black lives,†Tlaib said.
