FACT CHECK: Sanctuary policies are to blame for Colorado crime crisis
Despite Mayor Johnston’s claims today, Colorado’s sanctuary state policies are largely to blame for the local crime crisis.
Here are the facts…
➡️ A crime occurs every 56 seconds in Denver.
➡️ In 2019, Denver wasn’t even in the top 50 most dangerous cities. Today, it’s the top 10 most dangerous city.
➡️ Colorado is the 3rd most dangerous state.
➡️ Colorado has the 2nd highest property crime rate in the country.
➡️ Colorado is the worst state in the country for auto theft.
➡️ Tren de Aragua targeted Denver to be their American HQ.
As a result…
➡️ Local hospitals, schools, and police budgets have taken a hit.
➡️ Fentanyl and tusi are flooding into Colorado communities.
➡️ Colorado’s murder and drug overdoses rates remain flat, despite national downward trends.
The days of Colorado Democrats getting a free pass are over.
