On Crime: Supports message but not action of NFL players kneeling

While Pressley and [incumbent opponent Mike] Capuano did not disagree on much substantive policy, Pressley challenged on his vote for a so-called "Blue Lives Matter" bill which would impose harsher penalties for crimes against members of law enforcement. Additionally, in a recent debate, Capuano said that he supported the message of NFL players who have chosen to kneel in protest against police brutality but questioned the tactics. Pressley has said that she supports both the action and the message.
