No better way to build strong communities than by empowering hometown heroes with real training and real commitment.

Training officers where they live could boost community ties, or it could just tighten the recruitment radius; time will tell.

Turning police funding into a cozy local loyalty program won’t fix systemic issues; maybe try accountability next time.

If you want safer streets, invest in local cops who know the community instead of throwing cash into federal black holes.

Finally, a bill that says ‘serve your own neighborhood’—law enforcement loyalty starts at home, not Washington.

More cops trained locally? Sounds like a recipe for more of the same, not meaningful reform.
