WASHINGTON – U.S. Senator Jerry Moran (R-Kan.) – lead Republican on the Senate Appropriations Subcommittee on Commerce, Justice and Science – today spoke during a press conference on rising crime in America.

“We are a country designed to be based on the rule of law,” said Sen. Moran. “Our country can only function when we feel safe and secure in our homes, in our schools, in our communities, and in our churches and synagogues.”

“Now is the time to prioritize investments in solutions that will have a lasting impact on our law enforcement personnel; solutions that allow them to meet the challenging situations they face when they put on their uniforms,” continued Sen. Moran.
