Carter | C001125 | troycarter.house.gov | troycarter | https://troycarter.house.gov/media/press-releases | scraper | NEW ORLEANS, L.A. -- Today, Congressman Troy A. Carter, Sr. released the following statement in response to President Biden’s Executive Order on police reform, actions announced on the second anniversary of the murder of George Floyd by police in Minneapolis. “While the Senate is unable to move important policing reform legislation, today, on the second anniversary of George Floyd’s murder, President Biden took the bold executive action to institute policing reform that will help build public trust while strengthening public safety. “I’ve long talked about smart funding the police, and these are the types of actions I’ve been speaking about. Body cameras, banning choke holds, identifying the bad police officers, and providing increased training will make a real difference. Importantly, this executive order will help recruit and retain good police officers while ensuring officers’ physical and mental health are supported. “Incidents like the murders of George Floyd and Ronald Greene here at home have forced Black parents to have conversations like the ones I must have with my sons. I counsel my sons that if they interact with police to just make it home so that I can fix it in the morning. These actions will help move the country to a place where no parent need have these conversations, and will help save lives while laying the path toward true public safety. “While today’s Executive Order is a powerful step, it isn’t the end of the fight for justice in policing for all. I will stay in the fight as long as it takes.” ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-08T02:29:07Z |
