The Congressional Black Caucus says its members will meet with President Biden at the White House on Thursday to discuss police reform in the wake of the fatal beating of Tyre Nichols by police in Memphis, Tennessee.
The Congressional Black Caucus said earlier this week that it had requested a meeting with the president to “push for negotiations on much needed national reforms to our justice system — specifically, the actions and conduct of our law enforcement,” according to a statement from Rep. Steven Horsford, D-Nev., the caucus chair.
“The brutal beating of Tyre Nichols was murder and is a grim reminder that we still have a long way to go in solving systemic police violence in America,” Horsford said, announcing the request to meet with the president. “President Biden is committed to doing everything in his power to adjust, to ensure our criminal justice system lives up to the promise of fair and impartial justice, equal treatment, and dignity for all,” Dalton added.
