Senate Debate on Bipartisan Law Enforcement Support Bills Led by Catherine Cortez Masto and Cory Booker

Published | Video Starts at 15:40

I say we reject this and in a bipartisan way that we demand an end to this kind of constitutionally unjust carving up of the resources we approve. Think about this. In April, Donald Trump's Administration cut nearly 400 public safety grants administered by its Office of Justice programs without any notice or explanation. Think about that for a second. Programs that I supported, programs that support, that I co sponsored. Programs that protect police officers and communities. He canceled without a justification. (15:40–15:53)
