President Biden on Thursday marked the third anniversary of George Floyd’s murder by urging Congress to pass legislation that would overhaul policing.
Mr. Biden renewed a call for lawmakers to change policing at the federal level, saying it is the only way to achieve “lasting change at the state and local levels.”
Floyd was murdered May 25, 2020, by former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin, who kneeled on his neck for more than 9 minutes despite Floyd saying he couldn’t breathe. Video of the encounter between Floyd, who was Black, and Chauvin, who is White, sparked outrage across the country, protests against police brutality and calls to increase policing accountability.
Mr. Biden said Thursday that the country must “recommit to the work we must continue to do every day to change hearts and minds as well as laws and policies.”
