On Tuesday, Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Secretary Ben Carson joined the chorus of voices denouncing those who want to “defund the police” over the death of George Floyd.
Speaking ahead of a Senate Committee Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs Committee hearing on Tuesday, Carson said that police protect largely low-income communities, suggesting that those pushing the idea of defunding law enforcement come to terms with the reality of defunding police departments in some of the nation’s largest cities.
