Every member of Minnesota's delegation voted for local police grant legislation included in a larger set of bills
WASHINGTON — A local police funding bill won unanimous support from Minnesota lawmakers in the U.S. House on Thursday, even as political tension around public safety remains sharply evident on Capitol Hill.
"Despite reports of its demise, bipartisanship is still alive," Democratic Rep. Dean Phillips texted shortly after passage of the $300 million legislation.
The package, which includes grant funding for departments with fewer than 125 law enforcement officers, passed on a 360-64 vote.
