Political Quotes

“I thank my colleague. I wonder if I might just ask something, in addition to that. I understand our distinguished leader on appropriations, Senator Mikulski, and Senator Nelson as well, have an amendment that would give law enforcement the resources necessary to combat terrorism.

But without adequate resources, other things may not receive the resources they need as well, in terms of law enforcement. I wonder if the Senator might just talk about the importance of resources for law enforcement as well, and how it is our job, in the context of this appropriations bill, to make sure we are prioritizing the fighting of terrorism as well as gun violence.”
