Of the trump administration. Speaker pelosi, welcome back to Washington Post live. Thank you. I appreciate your time on this important and sad day, one month since george floyd, unarmed black man was killed by a white Police Officer in minneapolis. We will cover a lot of topics today. Lets begin there. The house is voting today on your bill, the George Floyd Justice in policing act. How many republicans do you expect to join you . Absolutely no idea. I am the last person to ask if republicans will vote for a democratic bill. I am proud of the consensus we have had in the House Democratic caucus. This is a historic day for us.

Thats why it is such an honor to enroll this bill, passed by the senate and house in a strong bipartisan way. Meaningful when on june 4, we observe the 31st anniversary of the Tiananmen Square massacre. We are
