Press Release: Kweisi Mfume and Johnny Olszewski Urge President Trump to Reconsider Federal Troop Deployment in Baltimore

None

Congressmen Mfume and Olszewski urge President Trump to reconsider deploying federal troops to Baltimore, citing recent crime reductions.

Quiver AI Summary

Baltimore Representatives Kweisi Mfume and Johnny Olszewski have sent a letter to President Donald Trump urging him to reconsider plans for deploying federal troops to the city. They noted significant declines in homicides (30%) and non-fatal shootings (21%) over the past year, attributing this progress to community initiatives and local law enforcement efforts.

The lawmakers emphasized the importance of local governance in public safety, stating that local authorities are better positioned to address community-specific challenges. They expressed concern that federal troop deployment could undermine the improvements made.

In their letter, they welcomed federal support where appropriate but argued for strategies that focus on "justice, accountability, and peace" rather than military involvement in civilian policing, which they believe to be unnecessary at this time.
