Unfortunately, my district like many others across the country has a problem with gangs, which is why I introduced this amendment.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
In fashion, there are so many gangs, if you identify too much with one, you get caught - I would lose my freedom.
We need to send a clear message to gang members that violent crime will not be tolerated.
I have introduced a constitutional amendment to overturn Citizens United and make it clear that the Congress and state legislatures do have the ability and the power to regulate and get corporate funding out of political campaigns.
I found a mistake in a rule. They addressed the wrong rule number... I pointed it out, did an amendment, and everybody was happy after that.
Gang violence in America is not a sudden problem. It has been a part of urban life for years, offering an aggressive definition and identity to those seeking a place to belong in the chaos of large metropolitan areas.
My government is committed to carrying out electoral reforms. It is our firm resolve to keep criminal elements away from power.
If you're going to do something to hurt the district I represent, I can't vote for it.
I'm a gun owner and strong supporter of the Second Amendment.
And what is needed to prevent them from joining gangs was ample recreation for boys as well as girls, jobs and internships for training and money, and assistance to allow their families to live in decent homes.
Everything I did in the jails - chain gangs, everything - I haven't changed the policy. I did it, I stand by it, and I'm not going to change.
