“We really want to do this in a bipartisan way,” Rep. Jackson Lee says of passing police reform legislation in Congress. “The voices of Americans are being raised by the protesters in the streets, and it is an American issue.”

They went from protesters to rioters Why would I support you

A reform that is needed & can only not be done by choice to be evil is fixing the system to fail safe instead of the horrible way it is. We need prevention only policing always failing at all but peaceful no special rights attempts to prevent crime, allowing it as failure.

Thanks, Rep. Lee. But the protesters in the streets represent less than 1% of the nation's population.

A bipartisan way after organizing action wide unrest and riots. I'm new to politics but I dont think that's bipartisanship

Bad hair day again.

Don't SPEAK for me. I am AMERICA and only I speak for me.

This woman is part of the problem.

That would be smart, considering the Democrat party were the slave owners, started the KKK, and continue to oppress blacks in the cities they control.

lol you mean the people who hate law and order!!!! MSNBC is fake news and a left wing organization and if you can’t see this you definitely an idiot!!!!

The fight isn’t over. They’ll be back.

Dont let his life be in vain thinblueline

The protesters have been hijacked and are now a terrorist organization

BS. She has never wanted to do anything partisan

Oh boy... this lady and Maxine are cut from the same cloth...

Comm7nists are NOT American

Hahahah using JAckson Lee and Bipartisan in the same sentence is quite a streth, even for you marxists.

What about those who are being killed by the White Supremacy groups, targeted by the drug dealers? How about those rotten apples within the African American group who bring bad reputation to the entire African American group. ALL LIVES MATTER😪

No cops. No black people. When’s this sht coming to an end? Asking 4 a country. 18 people were killed in Chicago in a 24-hour span last — the deadliest day in the Windy City in roughly six decades. AND a week later 92 SHOT, 27 FATALLY, IN CHICAGO'S MOST VIOLENT WEEKEND OF 2020.

Not my issue. I like being protected by cops.

This has been goin on for yrs. get it done law&order No defunding reform educate retrain stop with BS hold the officer accountable stop condemning all law-enforcement Get the Effen protesters off the street I’m sick of it tired hearing it I’m tired of seeing lives being destroyed

Louie Woodworth knows on why they are charging 5 cents per bag so they can hand the money to someone that wants to cut off dicks

No, the protesters are against American values and law. They want to tear down what's good & destroy the hard work done by others. Rep Lee is misinformed.

If you want that hair style ask your barber for the 'bunt cake pan.'

Will they be signing the legislation in the state of CHAZ?

Who gives a damn

Smart. I can't see how this reform can't be bipartisan. There's no political red tape here. Better psychological assessment...ongoing... open book policy on information to the public... eh i really think that's all we need.

The protesters are un American.

This rep, has to much anger towards white ppl & far to much hate for our white president to be talking right now, Trump been in dc 4 yrs - others- a life time, no rush to get it right !

I really want to become a Pope.. And honestly, I believe my chance is better of achieving that, Then the GOP working in a bipartisan manner to do this.

If MLK tried to give the I have a dream speech at a college campus today, asking people to judge character and not skin color. They'd call him a Nazi, pull the fire alarm, and violently attack him. etc

Most of America has no sympathy for criminals ,thugs resisting arrest. 'Reform' that, then no one gets killed.

Oh no the american people are not voicing their opinions, rioters and radicals are, put the police reform on the ballot and let the american people vote, not 'congress or some special council '

Bahahaha.... I wanted to cut this down but... Look at it...😂😂😂
