87th Legislative Session Recap

Do you know why DPS left? No, I do not. You're unaware of the fact that there was a DPS officer that shot yet another unarmed black man? Unaware of that. On the year anniversary of George Floyd's death. The death of a Texan. Instead of passing police reforms, we are attempting to tie the hands of elected officials who understand their communities of color. Communities that don't exist in many of your districts. This summer we saw protests in the streets. But for whatever reason, we still haven't seen Ms. T's bill on this floor. (00:58–01:13)
