Biden SELLS OUT Dems… Left Furious

Democrats and liberals expected Joe Biden to come through for them.

Republicans passed a bill in the House to repeat the DC City Council law that would lessen penalties for major crimes.

The absence of Senator John Fetterman (D-PA) cost Democrats, but there were two other Democrats that moved over to the GOP side of the aisle on this.

The only way to stop the legislation would be for Joe Biden to veto it.

The White House has announced that he will not do that.

Not Happening

Rep. Andrew Clyde (R-GA), the originator of the legislation, stated, “If enacted, the Council’s dangerous legislation will embolden violent criminals — threatening the well-being of both Washingtonians and visitors at a time of heightened crime in our nation’s capital.

“My resolution sends a clear message to the Senate, the White House, and the American people that the People’s House rejects soft-on-crime policies that jeopardize Americans’ safety and security.

“I thank my colleagues for supporting and passing this commonsense resolution in order to ensure all Americans can safely enjoy our nation’s capital city.”

While there are quite a few of the more extreme Democrats that wanted to see this legislation stopped and the lower penalties put in place, DC Mayor Bowser was not one of them.

She stated, “Over the past several months, residents and partners in the public safety and criminal justice community expressed concerns about some provisions in the updated code, including lower penalties for certain crimes.

“The updated code would expand eligibility… from youthful, convicted violent offenders to people of all ages; it would also expand the right to a jury trial for those charged with misdemeanors but facing jail time, which is expected to exacerbate the already stretched capacity of the court system; and it would reduce maximum criminal penalties for violent crimes like carjacking and robberies.”
