Subject: Defunding Localities which Fail to Prosecute Violent Crime
Description: Hyde-Smith (R-MS) amendment to the congressional budget helps combat the practices of leftists and Soros-funded prosecutors who fail to prosecute crime and protect local communities. Specifically, the amendment blocks localities from receiving federal funds under various grant programs if their district attorney prohibits the prosecution of certain violent offenses or serious offenses that result in damage to property or individuals. ACU opposes the left's quest to defund the police and promote lawlessness, and supports protecting property rights and victims of crime.
Result: Amendment Rejected, 47-52
Names ordered: By yea/nay Order alphabetically Order by party Order by state
