BIDEN VETOES COMMONSENSE & BIPARTISAN CONGRESSIONAL RESOLUTION, ALLOWS DC’S ANTI-POLICING LAW TO STAY IN EFFECT

COLUMBUS, OH – Senator JD Vance (R-OH) issued the following statement reacting to President Biden’s veto of  H.J.Res.42, which would have nullified the DC Council’s “Comprehensive Policing and Justice Reform Amendment Act of 2022,” an anti-policing measure that endangers Americans in the District of Columbia:

“With today’s veto, President Biden rejected a bipartisan and commonsense effort to make our nation’s capital safer,” said Senator Vance. “The millions of Americans who visit Washington and the brave men and women of the DC Metropolitan Police Department deserve far better. It’s a shame they won’t get it from this administration.”
