George Floyd’s brother to Congress: ‘I am here to ask you to make it stop. Stop the pain’

Philonise Floyd testifies on Capitol Hill one day after his brother George Floyd’s burial in Houston. He asked the House Judiciary Committee to take action on policing in the United States. Anderson speaks to Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, a Democratic member of the committee, and CNN Chief Political Analyst Gloria Borger.  Amber Ruffin, a comedian and writer for “Late Night with Seth Meyers” speaks to Anderson about the personal, painful, and dangerous interactions she has had with the police as a black woman. CNN’s Gary Tuchman takes us to Camden, New Jersey where several years ago every member of the police department was fired and a new police force was created.

Plus, the director of the Harvard Global Health Institute projects another 100,000 people in the United States will die from Covid-19 by September. Dr. Leana Wen talks about the rise in coronavirus cases as states are reopening around the country. “We know how to prevent the next 100,000 deaths, but we are not doing that,” says Dr. Wen.
