"Our local officials cannot defund our police, and our prosecutors cannot be soft on crime."

"Knee-jerk reactions to impose gun control policies that seek to curtail our constitutional right to bear arms are not the answer."

"Efforts to divert violent criminals out of the criminal justice system have failed."

"The answer is not defunding the police. The answer is not pitting one group of Americans against another."
