John,
For the last few months, we’ve watched how our frontline workers have held our nation together. Our doctors, nurses, firefighters, paramedics, and police officers have been the first ones to answer the call to help, sacrificing their health and wellbeing, day in and day out. Law enforcement officers just trying to keep the peace have sometimes been attacked by rioters.
But what does the Radical-Left want to do in response to these unacceptable acts?
They want to defund them.
They want to DISMANTLE the police.
To be clear, police brutality against communities of color is wrong and should never happen again. I have consistently spoken out against it. The police officers I know agree and support responsible reforms in police practices and training methods. But the radical Far-Left is now trying to DEFUND our police departments.
Just weeks ago, my colleagues and I in the Senate worked tirelessly to put together a responsible police reform bill, but the Far-Left chose to block the Senate from even having a conversation or debate about this.
The Far-Left chose partisanship over working across the aisle to agree on common sense legislation that would provide better training, increased transparency, and stronger accountability for our police departments.
John, I need you to understand how extreme this is: The Far-Left Radical Mob wants to DEFUND our police departments around the nation.
John, will you do what you can RIGHT NOW to help show the Radical-Left that they and their extremist ideals have no place here in Ohio?
