ICYMI: Anderson County law enforcement speaks up against Davids

June 1, 2023

In case you missed it, Anderson County law enforcement is speaking up about Sharice Davids not having their backs following Davids’ recent anti-law enforcement stances.

Anderson County Sheriff Vern Valentine said local officers have become frustrated with repeatedly seeing the same criminals: 

“We have sent a person back already and they made it back here in a month or so,” Valentine said. “Now we have sent them back again, and I heard he was back in the area again.”

Background:

  • Sharice Davids voted against the POLICE Act, a bill to mandate deportation for any non-citizen guilty of assaulting a police officer or first responder. 
  • Davids backed an extreme plan giving more power to anti-police activists and allowing individual police officers to be targeted by protestors.
  • In 2018, Davids voiced support for defunding U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. 
  • In 2018, Davids also said the police system is “rooted in violence.”


“It’s no surprise local law enforcement is fed up with Sharice Davids’ soft-on-crime policies. Davids has made it clear it’s more important for her to align with the extreme Left rather than having the backs of Kansas’ law enforcement.” – NRCC Spokeswoman Delanie Bomar
