Political Quotes

“Madam Speaker, I rise to celebrate the work Democrats are doing to create safer communities across America. Living safely should not be determined by your ZIP Code, your ethnicity, or your salary. That is why, last week, Democrats passed four public safety bills, including: The Invest to Protect Act, which helps local police departments with less than 125 officers to hire additional officers; The Mental Health Justice Act, which provides for training of mental health professionals to respond to mental health crises; The Break the Cycle of Violence Act, which provides grant dollars for neighborhood crime prevention programs; and The VICTIM Act, which allows us to hire and train more detectives to investigate violent crimes. Keeping families safe by putting people first and putting people over politics is what Democrats do. ____________________”
