Senator @CoryBooker (D-NJ) on the status of bipartisan policing reform talks: “After months of exhausting every possible pathway to a bipartisan deal, it remains out of reach right now.”
Booker: “Unfortunately, even with this law enforcement support and further compromises we offered, there was still too wide a gulf with our negotiating partners and we faced significant obstacles to securing a bipartisan deal.”
