To Curtail Police Impunity, Rep. Justin Amash Announces Legislation to End “Qualified Immunity”

Justin Amash writes:
"The brutal killing of George Floyd by Minneapolis police is merely the latest in a long line of incidents of egregious police misconduct.
This pattern continues because police are legally, politically, and culturally insulated from consequences for violating the rights of the people whom they have sworn to serve. That must change so that these incidents of brutality stop happening.
Until then, we must ensure that those whose rights are violated by police aren’t forced to suffer the added injustice of being denied their day in court."
