The GOP bill wasn't really police reform, it was tweaking a few things here and there. It basically gave additional guidelines on use of force and no knock warrants, making lynching a federal crime (yeah, it's not already) and not using chokeholds. None of that addresses the deeper root cause.
Senators need to work across party lines and actually put together something worthwhile. I'm sick of Washington infighting and politicians on both sides acting instead of doing. Term limits for everyone please.

A zillion people watched Al Cowlings drive OJ down the freeway too. It didn’t mean we loved OJ or supported him. Sometimes, you just can’t turn away from the trainwreck.

That bill isn't reform, it's tweaking a few things. It didn't solve anything.
Actual reform will take both D's and R's working together to put forward an actual plan that addresses root causes vs. guideline changes. Let's see if our elected representation can actually do something about it - I'm not optimistic.
Yeah, because that bill sucks. It does nothing to legal accountably in police misconduct. It's an eye roll to say insentivize banning choke holds, host ban them. They haven't voted on it but Democrats proposed a much better and actually useful bill before this one and the Republicans already have said they went vote for it. But the Democrat one also isn't good enough.

Or real reform could be passed by the Democratic House and Senate and signed by President Biden next January.

Which might be what actually happens. Having Legislative and Executive branches with a D majority would result in things getting done. It will no doubt piss off a section of people, but we also won't be stuck in a cycle of passing House resolutions that never see the light of day in the Senate.
Presidency is obviously the big prize, but the senate races in November are a huge story.
