Arizona’s U.S. House members voted along party lines on Wednesday to pass the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act. The bill passed by in a 220-212 vote.
The House members also voted along party lines on HR 1, a bill that will strip the voting process of integrity assurance measures.
The Democrats' Justice In Policing Act defunds the police, drains resources from police departments, and leaves our communities vulnerable to crime. It's another radical piece of legislation from a party that is intent on fundamentally transforming our great nation. pic.twitter.com/1jxJT6Yw9r

Transformational change in the operations of law enforcement is necessary to begin to heal the deep wounds that systemic racism & structural inequalities have caused in our country. That’s why I voted tonight to pass the George Floyd #JusticeinPolicing Act. pic.twitter.com/k7N61lyaR7

We just passed #HR1, the #ForThePeople Act, to make sure that politicians serve the public interest, not special interests. We will create new ethical standards across all three branches of government, crack down on lobbyists and put an end to corruption in Washington. pic.twitter.com/bHHjKjCaoH

?MUST WATCH interview on @newsmax: I discuss the Democrats’ radical H.R. 1 that totally undermines the integrity of our elections! It throws out states’ laws, legalizes ballot harvesting, AND gets rid of all state voter ID requirements – the opportunities for fraud are endless! pic.twitter.com/aYAUmmgxVN

Americans of all backgrounds were outraged by the police brutality that took George Floyd's life.
We honored his memory today and passed the urgent reforms needed to address systemic racism while bringing accountability and transparency to police departments. #JusticeInPolicing https://t.co/S6E1ZIjYaE
