Police reform's potential qualified immunity compromise may not be enough to get progressives on board
Fox News
A potential compromise on the controversial qualified immunity doctrine might not be enough to get progressive Democrats on board with a police reform deal, possibly endangering its passage in the House if too many left-leaning Democrats vote against it.
But Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman, D-N.J., who was among a group of progressive House Democrats to sign a letter last month saying qualified immunity "must" be eliminated in any reform deal, appeared to pour cold water on the idea in a statement to Fox News Wednesday. "What we are in search of is the incentive to treat Black men and women with the dignity and respect that their humanity demands. Right now cities have been paying wrongful death suits to the tune of billions of dollars and we haven’t seen a change in the behavior of officers," Watson Coleman said. 05.21.2021 QI Letter by Fox News
