Bless your heart, Republicons stay on brand and intentionally misrepresent the actual premise. Defunding the police includes reforms to hold officers accountable. Social workers paid less and held to a stricter level of accountability and work with the same populations.
Congress needs to enact measures that will reform policing practices and hold law enforcement accountable. Defunding the police will not accomplish these goals- I am excited to work with my colleagues on measures that will improve policing and keep our communities safe.

Defunding = Reforming. But surely you know that; you just don't have an honest bone in your body (or, really, any obvious bones).

There's literally a bill in the House addressing those issues. How does not doing anything mean anything will change? Police officers have had decades to deal with "a few bad apples". They haven't.

Throwing money at them hasn't worked very well, so how about we cut funding particularly for private prisons and the drug war, maybe then cops can actually do their jobs?https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2017/03/01/most-violent-and-property-crimes-in-the-u-s-go-unsolved/%3famp=1 …
