“I really appreciate the Members from Florida raising this issue. I think it gives us an opportunity to point out that one of the really strong aspects of the COPS Program is the wonderful way in which it has been administered, the expeditious way in which these grants have been let out across the Nation, getting these cops on the beat, getting policemen on the beat. Also, I think the gentlewoman's interest raises a very real strength with regard to the COPS Program. That it has flexibility, and the ability to adapt to different environments and provide additional law enforcement resources to local communities.”
