'Squad' Dems reject honoring fallen police officers.

Two members of "the Squad," Reps. Rashida Tlaib and Cori Bush, were the only Democrats to vote against a resolution honoring police officers killed in the line of duty during National Police Week. The resolution passed with unanimous support from Republicans and nearly all Democrats, amending H.Res. 363 title to read: "Resolution memorializing law enforcement officers killed in the line of duty." The two representatives did not immediately explain their vote, but claimed that community safety is a top priority for them.
