How the Pro Criminal Policies Embraced by the Biden Harris Administration Have Endangered Americans: Report

WASHINGTON, D.C. - Today, the House Judiciary Committee and its Subcommittee on Crime and Federal Government Surveillance released an interim staff report titled, "Violence in America: How the Pro-Criminal, Anti-Law Enforcement Policies Embraced by the Biden-Harris Administration Endanger All Americans." The report highlights how rogue prosecutors in Democrat-run jurisdictions downgrade serious crimes, refuse to prosecute the laws on the books, and put violent criminals ahead of innocent communities. It also details how Democrat-run cities defunded their police and experienced a subsequent increase in both violent and non-violent crime.

Violent crime is out of control in major Democrat-run cities across America. Biden-Harris allies like Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg and Philadelphia DA Larry Krasner are releasing violent criminals back on the streets with no regard for the alarming rise in violent crime or safety of their cities. Meanwhile, left-wing policymakers at the state and local level are passing radical pro-criminal policies that make it harder to put repeat criminals behind bars and out of American neighborhoods.

Americans are less safe under the Biden-Harris Administration and their pro-criminal policies.
