However, two members of the far-left &#8220;Squad&#8221; Democrats, Rashida Tlaib of Michigan and Cori Bush of Missouri, were the only lawmakers to vote against it.<\/p>\n<p>In a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wow-shifty-dominion-uses-a-factcheck-statement-by-cisa-group-that-includes-dominion-to-prove-its-innocence-on-its-own-factcheck-page\/\" title=\"WOW! Shifty Dominion Uses a \"FactCheck\" Statement by CISA Group that INCLUDES DOMINION to \"Prove\" Its Innocence on Its Own \"FactCheck\" Page\">statement released<\/a> on Tuesday, Tlaib and Bush claimed that the resolution pushed a &#8220;false narrative&#8221; and was &#8220;not a referendum on support for the safety of first responders.&#8221; They accused Republicans of using the document to advance their own agenda and gaslight the public.<\/p>\n<p>The resolution honored the 556 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/the-red-wave-of-conservative-women-elected-to-congress\/\" title=\"The Red Wave of Conservative Women Elected to Congress\">law enforcement<\/a> officers who died in the line of duty, but Tlaib and Bush brought up the events of January 6, 2021, as a reason to justify their rejection. They claimed that Republicans were actively targeting agencies that uphold the law and hold former President Donald Trump accountable for his actions.<\/p>\n<h3>Defunding the Police<\/h3>\n<p>Both Tlaib and Bush have been vocal supporters of defunding the police. Bush has frequently expressed her support for the movement, stating that &#8220;defunding the police has to happen&#8221; and that the money should be redirected to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/they-dont-buy-into-that-at-all-are-far-left-policies-behind-hispanic-voters-rightward-shift\/\" title=\"\u2018They Don\u2019t Buy Into That At All\u2019: Are Far-Left Policies Behind Hispanic Voters\u2019 Rightward Shift?\">social safety nets<\/a>.
