Senior adviser to the president for public engagement and former mayor of Atlanta, Keisha Lance Bottoms, speaks with "Morning Rush" hosts Rob and Jay.
Recently, President Joe Biden announced details of a plan to create safer communities amid growing violence. It's what the White House is calling the "Safer America Plan." This proposal calls for $37 billion as part of the president's 2023 budget and outlines where and how the funding would be spent. The plan, however, will need to be approved by Congress. Keisha Lance Bottoms, senior adviser to the president for public engagement and the former mayor of Atlanta, joined Newsy's "Morning Rush" to talk more about the plan.
