Democrats Want To Reform, Not Defund, Police

The NPR Politics Podcast

Congressional Democrats on Monday unveiled the Justice in Policing Act of 2020, which aims to install wide-ranging reforms for police departments across the country. It faces Republican opposition. Responding to a mantra of nationwide anti-racism protests, Joe Biden's campaign announced he doesn't support defunding police departments. Reform activists say their ask is more nuanced than that.

In this episode: campaign correspondent Asma Khalid, congressional reporter Claudia Grisales, and congressional correspondent Kelsey Snell.
