The Biden Administration Seeks to Expand Funding for 1994 Crime Bill Programs
Introduction
In a recent press conference, Jen Psaki made waves by claiming that Republicans are the ones who seek to defund the police. However, she uses some very specific language that so far nobody has picked up on. That is, until your favorite researcher listened to the clip. Here it is below:
[CAP]
What she is saying here is a play on words, and it’s clever. Psaki mentions the “cops program” which is actually an acronym C.O.P.S.
COPS Program
COPS, standing for (Community Oriented Policing Services) comes as a direct result of the 1994 Crime Bill. Psaki says that Biden ran on increasing the budget, whereas President Trump ran on decreasing it. What a play on words, huh?
I will be reporting more on this over the next few days, but here are a few resources to get you going if you want to look into it yourself:
On the COPS website, it mentions specifically that it was a program that began with the 1994 passage of the Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act (H.R. 3355).
The COPS program has a long history of being a financial and bureaucratic disaster.
It was involved again in Obama’s “Task Force on 21st Century Policing” which resulted in millions and millions of taxpayer dollars being spent on committees, research, events, etc., with very little substance. Essentially, just another liberal money pit.
You can read the final report made by the task force here. .....
While still Vice President, Biden stated explicitly that he was not ashamed of his involvement in the ’94 Crime Bill and doubled down on it.
In Conclusion
There is a lot more to discuss on this, but after hearing that clip an hour ago I wanted to compile this quick article about the Crime Bill, about Psaki’s double speak, and get others to be aware of it.
Biden hasn’t changed his stripes.
And he’s proud of it.
