Abrams’s record shows otherwise.
When asked by CNN, “So yes to some defunding [of the police],” Abrams replied, “We have to reallocate resources, so yes!”
Meanwhile, Abrams has spent over $1.2 million on private security since her gubernatorial candidacy began in December.
Abrams’s statement that she would defund police while spending large on personal security is not all. She has also acknowledged she was “honored” to become co-chair of the Black Voices for Black Justice Fund, a radical Democrat justice organization that handed thousands of dollars to “defund police” activists who want to abolish the police.
In addition, Abrams currently is a board member and governor of the Marguerite Casey Foundation and received at least $52,500 in income from the foundation, which created a coalition that showered funds to defund the police groups.
