House Democrats and Senate Republicans are on a collision course over policing reform, despite a bipartisan consensus that action is necessary amid nationwide protests and civil unrest in response to high-profile episodes of police misconduct.
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell came out firmly against a Democratic plan to overhaul policing on Tuesday, saying that Democrats want to"federalize all of these issues. That's a non-starter. The House version is going nowhere in the Senate." McConnell dismissed the Democratic proposal as"typical Democratic overreach to try to control everything in Washington. We have no interest in that.
Scott expressed concerns on Monday after some senior Senate Republicans signaled that the chamber may have to wait at least a month to take up the policing legislation, warning,"I think us waiting a month before we vote is a bad decision." The public display of tensions within the Senate GOP conference comes as Republicans in the chamber are locked in a high-stakes battle to keep the majority in the 2020 elections.
