ching overhaul of police procedures and accountabi-
lity Monday, a sweeping legislative response to the mass
protests denouncing the deaths of black Americans in
the hands of law enforcement. The political outlook is
deeply uncertain for the legislation in a polarized election
year. President Donald Trump is staking out a tough “law
and order” approach in the face of the outpouring of
demonstrations and demands to re-imagine policing in

formative structural change,” said House Speaker Nancy
Pelosi, drawing on the nation’s history of slavery.

crats held a moment of silence at the Capitol’s Eman-
cipation Hall, reading the names of George Floyd and

brutality and violence — the length of time prosecutors House Speaker Nancy Pelosi of Calif., center, and other members of Congress, kneel and observe
