Rosen introduces bill redirecting funds from DOJ’s Anti-Weaponization Fund

WASHINGTON DC (KOLO) – A new bill from Senator Jacky Rosen would redirect funds from the DOJ’s Anti-Weaponization Fund.

Rosen says three bills would direct the $1.8 billion towards funding SNAP, Medicaid and public safety programs, such as the COPS Hiring Program and the Public Safety Officers Benefits Program.

“At a time when hardworking families are struggling with rising costs, Donald Trump is trying to give himself a $1.8 billion slush fund to pay out his political allies and January 6 rioters who beat up police officers. These are taxpayer dollars that should be used to help lower costs for hardworking families and keep them safe,” said Senator Rosen. “That’s why I’ll be introducing three bills to put Washington Republicans on the record and redirect this funding to Medicaid, SNAP, and law enforcement programs instead of Trump’s slush fund.”
