KC murder rate skyrockets in 2023

July 20, 2023

The murder rate in Kansas City is at 21.4%, which is up 5% from this time last year and the latest example of how violent crime is skyrocketing in and around Sharice Davids’ district.

Sharice Davids has embraced a number of anti-law enforcement policies:
 

  • She voted against the POLICE Act, a bill to mandate deportation for any non-citizen guilty of assaulting a police officer or first responder.
     
  • She also voted against condemning policies that effectively gave more power to anti-police activists. 


“This is an unfortunate example of how Sharice Davids’ rhetoric has real-world consequences in her district. Davids’ soft-on-crime policies are making the Kansas City area more dangerous.” – NRCC Spokesman Delanie Bomar
