I will lobby tirelessly in cooperation with other mayors around the country to insure that federal funding for our recently added police officers continues.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
As mayor, I would support law enforcement, not knock it down.
I've been mayor for five years. I've led a city. And directed a police department. I know how to use resources.
The police protect us, and we're going to protect the police.
That's what mayors do. They lobby Congress to provide resources for their city.
I firmly believe that we can protect taxpayer dollars, bus drivers' jobs, and the safety of our students. We just need a mayor who actually cares about all three.
I'll continue to work to ensure that safety and I am honored to have earned the endorsement of the men and women who provide public safety in our city.
I want to be a mayor who helped, really helped.
I've made it clear that I'm not taking special interest PAC money or accepting donations from lobbyists - ever. I want to represent the interests of the citizens.
With the consent of the people, I will seek to continue service in Congress for the well-being of our state and our nation.
We pass bills authorizing improvements and grants. But when it comes time to pay for these programs, we'd rather put the country's money toward tax breaks for the wealthy than for police officers who are protecting our communities.
