FETTERMAN TO HOLD CAMPAIGN RALLY WITH PLANNED PARENTHOOD, ‘DEFUND THE POLICE’ ACTIVIST ON 9/11 ANNIVERSARY
UNITED STATES - MARCH 31: Rep. Angie Craig, D-Minn., participates in the news conference outside the Capitol on the on the Affordable Insulin Now Act vote in the House of Representatives on Thursday, March 31, 2022. Minnesota was in the national spotlight in 2020 when George Floyd died after being handcuffed and held down by Minneapolis police officers in 2020. Floyd’s death sparked violent protests in Minneapolis and around the world, as well as a"defund the police" movement that was supported by many Democrats.
An aide to Craig said she was the first member of the Minnesota delegation to publicly oppose the ballot initiative to restructure the Minneapolis police department. She supported bipartisan legislation to boost officers’ access to disability benefits for post-traumatic stress disorder, which President Biden signed into law last month.
