Since taking the majority, Mariannette Miller-Meeks and House Republicans have gone out of their way to defund local and federal law enforcement.
Miller-Meeks voted for the ‘Default on America Act,’ dangerous legislation that would have cut up to $10 billion from federal law enforcement agencies and jeopardized nearly 30,000 jobs. These cuts would have included:
$2.8 billion from the FBI budget, resulting in the loss of 11,000 agents, analysts, and staff.
$162 million from the Capitol Police budget, resulting in the loss of 600 sworn officers.
$580 million from Federal Prosecutors in charge of prosecuting hate crimes, terrorism and more, resulting in the loss of 3,400 prosecutors and staff.
An average cut of $30,000 in federal grant money to local law enforcement agencies across the country.
Miller-Meeks is desperate to rewrite her record of abandoning the brave men and women who keep our communities safe.
DCCC Spokesperson Mallory Payne:
“Mariannette Miller-Meeks has a history of voting for reckless and dangerous cuts to law enforcement that would make our communities less safe – no amount of talk and political stunts can change that.”
