A win for sanity and safety

March 6, 2023

After a weekend of bad press and embarrassing call outs, Democrats are now waving the white flag on the controversial D.C. crime measure that would reduce penalties for violent criminals.

173 House Democrats like Mary Peltola voted to support this dangerous soft-on-crime measure, demonstrating even within a party that coddles criminals, Peltola is on the fringe of the fringe. 

“Mary Peltola showed her true colors when she voted to go along with reduced penalties for violent crime. Now we know Mary Peltola stands with criminals and against safer communities for families.” – NRCC Spokesperson Ben Petersen
