John Joyce said "As crimes continue to surge in cities across the U.S., it has become clear that calls to defund the police and attempts to interfere with law enforcement have put our communities and our families in danger. Across 32 major cities, car thefts have increased by 33 percent, and here in Washington, D.C., carjackings are up nearly 100 percent. Sadly, President Biden has ignored this crime wave and has refused to address the victims who now worry about living in their own homes. Surging violent crimes in our cities makes all Americans more vulnerable, and it is time for radical Members of this body to finally show their support of police officers. It is time for us to send a clear message that we will always stand with the men and women in blue. ___________________
