WASHINGTON — It's police week here at the nation's Capitol, and, with law enforcement officers flowing through the halls, the Senate Judiciary Committee took up several bills meant to support the police.
Amid debate about legislation Thursday to recruit officers who agree to serve in their home communities, California's senior senator spoke up.
"I just wanted to say one thing and that's about cops on the beat," Sen. Dianne Feinstein said — in her first extended public remarks since she returned to Washington, D.C., after several months at home in San Francisco with shingles.
