“Some want to defund the police, we’re funding the police and then some,” DeSantis said. FL Gov. Ron DeSantis announces $1K bonuses to law enforcement officials in his state: “Some want to defund the police. We’re funding the police and then some.” pic.twitter.com/qy3bhedlye The bonuses will be allocated in the state’s upcoming budget and include all sworn law enforcement officers, EMTs, firefighters and paramedics, DeSantis noted. DeSantis praised law enforcement who didn’t have the “luxury of working from home” during the pandemic. “They were out there every single day — our police, our fire, our EMTs — and they had to work more than they ever have, not just to deal with protecting us when the pandemic hit but then obviously how police were treated last year in many parts of the country was a total disgrace.”
