Protecting qualified immunity while increasing officer pay & doing nothing to rein immunities that police unions have negotiated for in exchange for lower pay all amounts to a massive mistake.
I’m all for increasing pay, but that should mean higher standards & less immunity.
But really, most of this agenda is the same old BS.
“Do less with less” government, at a time when we need heavy investment in all levels of education and infrastructure to make Indiana a place where people want to live, not leave.
Just remember every time you drive over potholed roads in Marion County … Indiana Republicans have zero interest in appropriate infrastructure funding. It’s very easy to blame Joe Hogsett, but even Republican members of the CCC have told me personally it’s a Statehouse problem.
Indiana Republicans have zero interest in appropriate GOVERNMENT funding overall, not just infrastructure. As a state there is a broad libertarian streak that shows up in Republican rhetoric, which leads to “do less with less”.
At a time when we are having regional water shortages that impact ag and industrial development, our state “water” management is fragmented and incomplete.
What better way to ensure that government can’t fulfill even its basic responsibilities than to underfund it?
Because that way, you can continue to talk about how the government should be cut more because it “doesn’t work”… even though you’re the primary reason it doesn’t.
