The gentlewoman just said that there was no defunding of the police. I would just point out Democrat-controlled cities around the country: Austin, Texas, $150 million cut; Baltimore, Maryland, $22 million; Boston, $12 million; Burlington, $1 million; Columbus, $23 million; Denver, $55 million; Eureka, California, $1.2 million; Hartford, $2 million; Los Angeles, $175 million; Madison, Wisconsin, $2 million; Minneapolis, $8 million; New York, $1 billion; Norman, $865,000; Oakland, $14.6 million; Oklahoma City, $5.5 million; Philadelphia, $33 million; Portland, Oregon, $15 million; Salt Lake City, $5.3 million; San Francisco, $120 million; Seattle, $69 million; Washington, D.C., $15 million cut. That is what Democrats have done over the last year. Mr. Speaker, I yield 1 minute to the gentleman from Utah (Mr. Owens).
