The House has approved a historic, sweeping policing reform bill, setting up a face-off with the Republican Senate where bipartisan talks have stalled.⁣

One day after senators blocked a GOP-led policing reform bill from advancing on the Senate floor, Democrats were seeking to apply pressure on Republicans by passing the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act of 2020 in the House.⁣

"Exactly one month ago, George Floyd spoke his final words, 'I can't breathe,' and changed the course of history," said House Speaker Nancy Pelosi at a press conference on the steps of the Capitol.⁣

"Today we have the opportunity and the obligation to ensure that his death, and the death of so many others, is not in vain," she said.⁣

The final tally of Thursday night's vote was 236-181. Three GOP members broke ranks and voted with Democrats in support of the bill: Reps. Brian Fitzpatrick of Pennsylvania, Fred Upton of Michigan and Will Hurd of Texas.⁣

The legislation, spearheaded by Congressional Black Caucus Chairwoman Karen Bass, would ban chokeholds and no-knock warrants in drug cases and reform qualified immunity, making it easier to pursue claims against police officers in civil court.⁣

Other requirements in the House bill include incentives for state attorneys general to investigate local police departments, and providing grants for states to create procedures for investigating police-involved deaths.⁣

The bill also aims to address cultural biases in police stations by mandating racial bias training. It would change the standard for evaluating whether use of force was justified. Now, officers only need to prove that use of force was "reasonable." The House bill would change the standard so that officers need to prove that use of force is "necessary."
