CBC member: Pittenger's apology isn't enough

A Congressional Black Caucus member said he would soon meet with the Republican lawmaker who claimed protesters against police shootings are motivated by hatred for whites, and said he needs to hear “something deeper” than a mere apology.

“I want to make sure he understands how wrong and insulting he is with that statement,” said Rep. Gregory Meeks, D-New York, during an MSNBC interview on Friday. “Understanding there’s an apology, but there’s got to be something deeper, more said to him in that regard so he truly understands how devastated people are by that statement.”
