Democrats aren't saying that "Defund The Police" is confusing because they would rather use something like "Reform The Police" to convince people, they're saying it because they don't want to defund the police, it's that simple.

christy smith voted against restoring voting rights for people on parole, against allowing returning citizens to serve on juries, against penalties for Fair Housing violations and voted FOR allowing landlords to discriminate against applications based on Section 8 status.
The nerve of people who ask “how are you going to pay for it?” whenever we propose building advanced public education, healthcare, & climate infrastructure yet defend a system where Trump pays $750 in taxes and Amazon pays none is beyond me.
In 2016 & ‘17, I paid thousands of dollars a year in taxes *as a bartender.*
