NEWSLETTER: The Justice in Policing Act

June 9, 2020

A MESSAGE FROM CONGRESSMAN STENY H. HOYER

Yesterday I was proud to Click here to read a section-by-section explanation of the bill.

Following committee action, I will bring this bill to the House Floor for a vote in the coming weeks. I continue to stand in solidarity with the thousands upon thousands of Americans peacefully protesting around the nation. With the introduction of this legislation, Democrats are saying: we see you, we hear you, and we are acting. We must ensure that systemic racism does not exist in our police departments, and I urge my Republican colleagues to support this long overdue bill.

As always, I encourage all Fifth District residents to continue to share their concerns and insights with me by contacting my office or connecting with me on Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram.

Sincerely Yours,
