                              S. RES. 602

 Mr. MARKEY. Mr. President, due to a clerical error, the junior 
Senator from California, Ms. Harris, was not added as an original 
cosponsor of S. Res. 602, a resolution that we introduced together on 
June 2, 2020, recognizing that the murder of George Floyd by officers 
of the Minneapolis Police Department is the result of pervasive and 
systemic racism that cannot be dismantled without, among other things, 
proper redress in the courts. Senator Harris understands that law 
enforcement should not be completely shielded from accountability when 
they violate someone's civil rights, and that the Supreme Court's 
qualified immunity doctrine is broken. I thank her for her support in 
leading the effort to abolish qualified immunity for law enforcement 
officers in its current form.
