Supporting Law Enforcement |
Keeping the peace on Louisiana’s streets is central to the success of our communities. Following the tragedies of Hurricanes Rita and Katrina, violent crime rates have risen dramatically and putting an end to these trends is something I feel very strongly about. Continuing to ask congress to allocate federal funds to improve local law enforcement will allow for more federal grants like the one Louisiana was awarded from the Department of Justice.
I also support the use of federal funding to help state and local governments combat drug abuse, protect citizens from crime, provide assistance to victims, and help bring communities together through community-oriented policing. Our nation is only as strong as the communities that form it, and I will work hard to keep Louisiana’s communities safe and crime-free.
