Democrats the party of bad ideas
Over the last few years, we have seen the consequences of leftist Democrats’ embrace of the radical "Defund the Police" and "No Cash Bail" movements. By slashing police budgets, ending cash bail, and allowing violent offenders back onto our streets, radical Democrats nationwide have made our communities less safe.

Last November, Darrell Brooks plowed his car through a Christmas parade killing six people and injuring 62 others in Waukesha, Wisconsin.
What’s truly upsetting is that Darrell Brooks was arrested for a nearly identical crime days before orchestrating the Waukesha Christmas parade massacre. However, Brooks was released from jail after he posted $1,000 bail.
How can someone accused of running over the mother of his child be allowed to walk out of jail for only $1,000? It’s because Democrats are soft on crime.
The inability to ensure public safety and protect communities is occurring at every level of state government.
One of the most high-profile Democrats in Wisconsin, Lt. Gov. Mandela Barnes, said that "reducing prison populations is now sexy" and sponsored a bill in the Wisconsin state legislature that would eliminate cash bail.
Meanwhile, far-left district attorneys in Milwaukee and Madison have gone beyond simply releasing dangerous criminals into the public and have refused to prosecute career criminals. As a result of letting dangerous felons and repeat offenders off the hook, crime is skyrocketing statewide.
These dangerous criminals know there will not be any consequences for their violent actions.
From 2019 to 2021, homicides in Wisconsin increased by 72%, aggravated assaults increased by 12%, and motor vehicle thefts increased by 144% – from 7,432 to 18,105 offenses, according to the Wisconsin Department of Justice.
Crime isn’t just surging in Wisconsin – echoes of Democrats’ "Defund the Police" movement are happening in every Democrat-run city and state across the country.

By giving police departments the resources they need to recruit additional officers, we can reverse the retirement and resignation crisis that has been plaguing law enforcement over the last few years.
By cracking down on rogue prosecutors who favor criminals over victims, we can ensure that no one else is put in harm’s way as a result of Democrats’ negligence.
House Republicans are ready to stand up to the criminals who think that this country is theirs for the taking, and the leftists in Washington who are enabling this outbreak of violent crime.

Fitzgerald is a REpublican who is calling out the Democrats' bad ideas in dealing with crime. All Americans would be rejecting the Dems' soft on crime measures that are harming the innocent in America.
