White House press secretary Jen Psaki discusses Biden administration's position on police reform.

Pelosi touted the sweeping police reform bill that the House passed in March in honor of George Floyd, who died in May 2020 after former Minneapolis Police Officer Derek Chauvin allegedly knelt on his neck during an arrest for more than 9 minutes.

"As I painfully watched the trial of Derek Chauvin during Holy Week, I was grateful that the House had already passed the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act," Pelosi said in a statement to Fox News.

"We definitely need reforms in the space of qualified immunity," Kaine said when asked about Tlaib's tweet. "But I, I am not in the camp that says, you know, we should disrespect police, we should reform police where police are necessary."

"May God bless the United States Capitol Police force and all who work to keep our nation safe, and may God bless America," she said.
