Redirecting Law Enforcement Funds: Focus on Violent Crime, Not Protests.

This bill aims to shift how federal law enforcement funds are spent. Instead of prosecuting nonviolent protestors, money would be redirected to combat violent offenders, drug traffickers, and illegal immigrants who have committed crimes. This means fewer resources for protest-related cases and more for serious criminal offenses.

Federal funds will not be used to prosecute nonviolent protestors, unless their actions involve physical injury or property damage.
Funds saved from prosecuting protestors will be redirected to combat violent criminals, drug traffickers (including fentanyl), and illegal aliens who have committed offenses.
The act seeks to reprioritize law enforcement efforts towards more serious violent crimes.
