Congressman Morgan McGarvey Statement on Trump DOJ’s Decision to Abandon Louisville’s Consent Decree
Today, Congressman Morgan McGarvey (KY-03) released the following statement on the Trump DOJ’s decision to abandon Louisville's consent decree:
“I am appalled and deeply disappointed by the Trump administration’s decision to abandon Louisville’s consent decree and undermine years of hard work by our community, law enforcement, and city officials.
“Despite the Trump DOJ’s short-sightedness and lack of moral clarity, I share Mayor Greenberg and Chief Humphrey’s commitment to implementing reforms to keep our city safe, including real transparency and accountability and an independent monitor empowered to conduct meaningful oversight.
“While Trump is playing politics and undermining our nation’s fight for racial justice and civil rights, we will continue working to ensure everyone in Louisville is and feels safe.”
