My legislation to require continuing education for police officers and to explicitly add implicit bias training, violence de-escalation tactics, and mental health screening in police training passed the Senate 38-0. This is only one small step towards justice, more is needed.@JeffMIrwin

This man isn't a protester. He was just a guy sitting at a traffic light when cops shot his car with a tear gas round. He got out to yell at them because his pregnant wife is in the vehicle. So they opened fire on them.@morphonios -

I’m getting scared that we’re forgetting Breonna Taylor- those cops haven’t even been arrested. Please remember black women. Please let’s keep fighting for her.
The officers who murdered Breonna Taylor nearly three months ago still have not been charged. We can’t forget about Black women in our quest for justice.
we still need justice for sandra bland.
we still need justice for breonna taylor.
we still need justice for deborah danner.
we still need justice for pamela turner.
we still need justice for korryn gaines.

Certainly, no one piece of legislation will cure what ails our society, so I am ready to listen to constituent voices and continue to work with my colleagues in the legislature on any other productive ideas that could help address racial disparities in our state.
NEW: MI Supreme Court declines to expedite Legislature's challenge to Gov #Whitmer's emergency powers, saying case should first go to MI Court of Appeals bit.ly/36ZjME5 #mileg #coronavirus
Interestingly, both the Legislature and the governor wanted the state Supreme Court to skip the appeals court and hear the case. Court votes 4-3 to let it go the normal course
1/ Appropriation of money is a powerful tool. Legislators should use state $$$ as the lever for change. If the legislature won't act (and many won't), Executive action should be taken:
- tie funding to the banning of excessive force techniques (knee&choke holds, etc.)
