Congressman Mullin cosponsors Justice Act

WASHINGTON— Congressman Markwayne Mullin (OK-02) released the following statement after becoming an original cosponsor of the Justice Act, which was introduced in the House of Representatives today.

“Defunding the police and creating anarchy is not a serious answer to the problems our country is facing,” Mullin said. “This bill delivers real solutions to invest in better training, improve transparency and create more accountability so police departments can better serve their communities. I am proud to support the Justice Act and I hope my colleagues across the aisle will put politics aside to make these meaningful reforms.”

The Justice Act is the House version of the bill introduced in the U.S. Senate by U.S. Senator Tim Scott (RSC). White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany said during a press briefing President Trump is “fully in support of the Scott bill.”
