The Hill: After George Floyd, how much has changed?

Regardless of the final contents of the bill, it shouldn’t be seen as a miracle cure that will immediately fix all areas of policing, Inimai Chettiar, federal director of the bipartisan Justice Action Network, noted.

“I don't think what we are looking at is something that is going to solve all of our policing problems,” Chettiar told The Hill, comparing the bill to the bipartisan criminal justice reform First Step Act that was passed in 2018 under former President Trump.

“Obviously, we need a second step and a third step, and so I think that's what we're moving towards is something that's ... a recognition from both sides that something's wrong in policing and that we do need to fix things.”
