Falk releases plan to curb gang activity

Attorney General candidate Kathleen Falk released her proposal today to combat gangs in Wisconsin. It involves using the Wisconsin Organized Crime Control Act to give the Department of Justice jurisidiction into local gang activity. Improved coordination between state and local governments on this issue would be a positive change. Falk also says she will work out of Milwaukee's DOJ office once a week to carry that initiative out.

Quoting Falk:

“I was born in Milwaukee, and I care deeply about my home town. The people of Milwaukee deserve as Attorney General who is here,” said Falk. “I will be on the front lines, working side-by-side with local officials, law enforcement officials, and community leaders to create solutions to Milwaukee’s rise in violent crimes.”
