2022 OH Senate race: on Crime


Bernie Moreno: We must stand together to "defend the police"

We need to restore respect for law-and-order in this country, and for those who work every day to keep us safe: our military, our police officers, and our first responders. While radical Democrats want to "defund the police," we must stand together to "defend the police" and give our men and women in uniform the resources and the training they need to properly protect us.

Jane Timken: I will always "Back the Blue," not defund the police

We cannot listen to the lefts' radical calls for defunding or abolishing the police. Republicans support common-sense solutions to police reform such as more training, better equipment like bodycams, and enhanced transparency--none of which would be possible without proper funding. While we should always root out bad apples and hold those accountable who break the law or misuse force, we cannot paint police officers with a broad and destructive brush. I will always "Back the Blue."

JD Vance: Violent crime spike because police afraid to do their jobs

We have a massive spike in violent crime because police officers are afraid to do their jobs. Any "crime prevention" effort that focuses on job training or gun seizures is a giant distraction. @JDVance1
