Grades rest on measured outcomes in each PolicyBomb, not on motives. Every line links to its receipt.
Positions on record
As recorded in each PolicyBomb's "who supports / who opposes" research. Not counted in the tally.
Policy #51: Defund the Police Harmful
For: Announced the Movement for Black Lives' BREATHE Act proposal (July 2020) to divest from policing; a proposal, not a formally introduced bill. Rep. Tlaib: supports BREATHE Act (Detroit Metro Times repost) (tlaib.house.gov)
Listed in the research as: Reps. Ayanna Pressley (D-MA) & Rashida Tlaib (D-MI)
Verdict: Bad as executed. Cuts plus demoralization shrank departments just as violence spiked, and the people hurt most were the residents of high-crime neighborhoods the movement meant to protect.
