Chair jerry nadler. Death ofer the tragic george floyd has been a wakeup call for americans feel yet the streets are lined with protesters demanding fundamental change in the culture of Law Enforcement and meaningful accountability for officers who commit misconduct. Today, we answer that call. We value and respect the brave and Honorable Police officers who put their lives on the line to protect our communities. We know most Law Enforcement officers do their jobs with dignity, selflessness and honor. They are deserving of our respect and gratitude for all they do to keep us safe. We must also acknowledge that there are too many up exceptions, too many Law Enforcement officers that dont uphold protecting and serving. The reality for too many americans, especially for too many africanamericans, is that Police Officers are perceived as a threat to their liberty, their dignity, and all too often, to their safety.

Jobs with dignity, selflessness, and honor. They are deserving of our respect and gratitude for all they do to keep us safe. But we must also acknowledge that there are too many exceptions. Too many Law Enforcement officers do not oppose the ethic of protecting and serving their community.

And black men between the ages of 15 and 34 are approximately 10 times more likely to be killed by police than other americans. This is not a new problem. Our countrys history of racism and racially motivated violence, rooted in the original sin of slavery, and lynchings and jim crow and systemic racism continues to haunt our nation. We see it in the rat

You can see tt too in philadelphia. The statue of matias baldwin. He was a committed and devoted abolitionist who funded education for freed African Americans, who gave them jobs, and they defaced his statue. Even more amazing, in boston the shaw memorial was defaced. The shaw memorial honors the 54th massachusetts regiment, the first African American regiment formed after the emancipation proclamation. Whose braver and battle on behalf of the union cause was memorialized in the movie glory. Yet it was defaced by these mobs. Not just our history. Its pop culture and entertainment too. You may have seen the news that live p. D. And cops Television Shows canceled. Paw patrol was on the cutting board too. You may know that chase is the police cop.
