BREAKING NEWS – Washington, D.C. – Presumptive 2020 Democratic presidential candidates currently in Congress are unsure whether to support President Trump-backed criminal justice reform, even as progressive groups endorse it, especially African-American groups who feel the current system is racist. For democrats, the question is whether the White House should be getting credit on an issue that until very recently was part of the democratic platform. But U.S. Sens. Kamala Harris, D-Calif., and Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., are unsure they will give their nod to the bill when it comes time to vote. In a letter signed by both of them and sent to the DNC Chair Tom Perez, they state, “We are trying to determine what’s the best way to use blacks as pawns in 2020. Currently, we are considering consulting with someone that specializes in this sort of thing, so we plan to reach out to Al Sharpton.”
