Today marks the six month anniversary of Mike Levin backing lower penalties for violent crime<\/a>. Mike Levin\u2019s vote was so extreme that even Alex Padilla, Chuck Schumer and Joe Biden couldn\u2019t match Levin\u2019s position on this<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Since 2022, there has been:<\/p>\n

\"\ud83d\udcc8\" 37%<\/a> increase in DC violent crime<\/p>\n

\"\ud83d\udcc8\" 29%<\/a> increase in DC property crime<\/p>\n

\"\ud83d\udcc8\" 28%<\/a> increase in DC homicides<\/p>\n

\"\ud83d\udcc8\" 114%<\/a> increase in DC motor vehicle theft<\/p>\n

Levin\u2019s decision to side with soft-on-crime policies shows he doesn\u2019t view an increase in violent crime to be concerning despite poll<\/a> after poll<\/a> after poll<\/a> showing the issue is on voters\u2019 minds.<\/p>\n

\u201cSix months ago Mike Levin made his position clear: he represents the most extreme fringe in the Democrat Party. Across the country crime is on the rise, but Levin has shown he would rather side with murderers, robbers and violent criminals than prioritize the safety of Southern California.\u201d<\/strong> \u2013 NRCC Spokesperson Ben Petersen<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
