Lankford accuses Democrats of putting politics over police reform

James Lankford, one of the Republicans who worked on the bill, joins Judy Woodruff to discuss his “great frustration” that the legislation won't move forward, its specific provisions regarding chokeholds and qualified immunity and the rise of COVID-19 in his state.
