Tell Congress: End police violence

Most recent signers:

Four years since George Floyd, a Black man living in Minnesota, was murdered at the hands of a white Minneapolis police officer, the Senate has refused to pass any meaningful legislation reining in police violence.

Meanwhile this crisis continues to get worse – with police killing more people last year than any previous year on record, and Black and brown people, people with disabilities, and members of the LGBTQ community still being killed by police at a disproportionate rate. It's clear, unchecked, unaccountable policing puts us all in harms way. Yet police continue to experience broad immunity, job security even with a pattern of misconduct, and a steady supply of war equipment directly from the Pentagon.

The George Floyd Justice in Policing Act could address these issues by helping end racial profiling, creating real accountability for police, and reining in the crisis of police violence. Urge your representatives to pass this bill now.

Subject Pass the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act

Body:

Police violence continues to escalate in our country. Our police systems are built and trained on a culture of racism, discriminatory profiling, and an excessive use of force – making our communities less safe as a result. As your constituent, I'm calling on you to pass meaningful, structural change for safer communities through the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act.

Every community deserves to feel safe – and that includes safety from police violence. Please do everything in your power to protect our communities and pass the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act.

Sincerely,

[First Name] [Last Name]

ABOUT HONORIFIC TITLES

Many public officials use "web mail forms" that this system will send your message to, so you don't have to visit their web sites to communicate with them. The systems that some of these officials use requires that the honorific field be used (Mr., Mrs., Miss, etc.).

Unfortunately, we do not have control of which honorific titles are presented as options. We must adhere to what the officials are using in order for your message to be delivered.

Alternate salutation *

Most elected officials’ constituent email systems accept a very limited set of salutations. Please select the one you would most prefer.
