Memphis Crime Drop: A Major Law Enforcement Push Yields Results
A significant law enforcement initiative in Memphis has led to a 43% decrease in overall crime since last fall. The multi-agency task force made over 9,000 arrests, seized hundreds of illegal guns, and found around 150 missing children. Senator Marsha Blackburn praised the collaboration between federal, state, and local leaders, highlighting the progress from the mayor, police chief, FBI, and Justice Department. Blackburn also discussed the California jury ruling against Meta and YouTube, and her Kids Online Safety Act to add safety controls on social media. She warned about the stalled funding fight for Homeland Security in Congress, which could impact FEMA, the Secret Service, Coast Guard, and TSA.
