The Senate failed to start debate on a police-reform bill Wednesday, blocked by Democrats who preferred the House legislation. Scott wrote his own police-reform bill for Senate Republicans. Scott called the Democrats’ request a “poison pill,” and qualified immunity was one of the few issues Meadows flagged with the House Democrats’ bill. It’s tougher to move the same bill through the House and Senate and deposit it on the president’s desk. And, as Scott said last week, Congress may have “missed the moment.”
