What if George Floyd died March 4th?

What would have taken precedence?

Would we be having a revolution or would we be quarantined?

The revolution is the energy, the passion, the anger - the force of the public's sheer willpower will bend this country onto the arc of justice. Whether people were in the streets or not - the movement is strong.

The plan:
Rescind former Attorney General Jeff Sessions’ guidance on consent decrees.
Revitalize the use of Department of Justice investigations, consent decrees, and federal lawsuits to address systemic constitutional violations by police departments.
Ensure accountability, strict guidelines and independent oversight for all federal funds used by police departments.
End federal programs that provide military equipment to local police forces.
Create a federally managed database of police use of deadly force.
Provide grants for states and cities to establish civilian oversight agencies with enforceable accountability mechanisms.
Establish federal standards for the use of body cameras, including establishing third-party agencies to oversee the storage and release of police videos.
Mandate criminal liability for civil rights violations resulting from police misconduct.
Limit the use of “qualified immunity” to address the lack of criminal liability for civil rights violations resulting from police misconduct.
Conduct a U.S. Attorney General's investigation whenever someone is killed in police custody.
Establish a federal no-call policy, including a registry of disreputable federal law enforcement officers, so testimony from untrustworthy sources does not lead to criminal convictions. Provide financial support to pilot local and state level no-call lists.
