House blocks DC police accountability bill.

The House voted to block a police accountability bill passed by the D.C. Council, which would enact some reforms that the city put in place on a temporary basis following the killing of George Floyd in 2020. The disapproval resolution now heads to the Senate, where its prospects remain unknown. The disapproval resolutions are part of a strategy by Republicans to put a spotlight on crime in the U.S. The Biden administration has said the president would veto the resolution.
