Biden meets with the Floyd family
In his first joint address to Congress, Biden urged lawmakers to commemorate Floyd s memory by passing the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act, a large package of police reforms policies, by the anniversary of Floyd s murder.
That will likely not happen.
While lawmakers in Washington continue to negotiate a package on police reform, the White House has downplayed the delay of legislation being passed by the one-year mark of Floyd s death, a deadline that Biden himself set. Instead of focusing on the talks, the president and vice president instead commemorated Floyd s death with his relatives, who visited the White House Tuesday.

WASHINGTON – President Joe Biden s administration this week will begin reuniting children and parents who were separated by President Donald Trump s zero tolerance policy, the Department of Homeland Security announced Sunday evening.
“The Family Reunification Task Force has been working day and night, across the federal government and with counsel for the families and our foreign partners, to address the prior administration’s cruel separation of children from their parents,” DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said in a statement. “Today is just the beginning. We are reuniting the first group of families, many more will follow, and we recognize the importance of providing these families with the stability and resources they need to heal.”
