NEW POLL: 90% Agree With Donalds Bill To Help Make DC Safe Again

WASHINGTON – On Friday, Congressman Byron Donalds (R-FL) reintroduced common sense legislation to help make our nation's capital safe again for all Americans. H.R. 4922 – The D.C. Criminal Reform to Immediately Make Everyone Safer (D.C. CRIMES) Act" is the 19th piece of legislation proposed by Congressman Donalds during the 119th Congress and asserts Congressional control over the District of Columbia by prohibiting the D.C. Council from pursuing progressive, soft-on-crime sentencing policy. Among various provisions, this bill addresses juvenile crime in our nation's capital by lowering D.C.’s definition of a “youth” from 24 years old to under 18. This will result in individuals 18 and older being properly treated and tried as adults. Tonight, ABC 7 WJLA – Washington, D.C. conducted a poll of its D.C. area viewers and 90% of the public agreed with H.R. 4922 . Watch the poll results here . ###
