Carson, Spartz Take Different Approaches to Honoring Police
WASHINGTON, D.C. Two Indiana representatives spoke of the U.S. House floor during a special hour for National Police Week Wednesday. Both Andre Carson and Victoria Spartz chose to honor law enforcement officers. Carson also advocated for police reforms.
“Though nothing can bring back the lives that have been lost or ease the collective grief that we feel, we take comfort in knowing that we will never for get them for the sacrifices they made,” said Carson (D), a former police officer.
He mentioned specifically Indianapolis Metro Police Officer Breann Leath, shot and killed while responding to a domestic disturbance call in April 2020.
