Since the death of George Floyd at the hands of Minneapolis police officers, the call for more police accountability has intensified. Federal legislation has been introduced to rectify this problem, and 12th District Congresswoman Debbie Dingell is one of its top supporters and discusses the bill's merits and its chances of passing. Additionally, she explores COVID-19 pandemic trends in a conversation with WEMU's David Fair.
