"The BREATHE Act, as it’s named, calls for a 'time-bound plan' to close all federal prisons and immigration detention centers. It would also abolish ICE and the Drug Enforcement Administration, ban police departments from using surveillance and military-grade weapons, and reallocate funds from policing and incarceration to social-welfare, health-care, education, and environmental programs."
Sounds like a Libertarian Utopia!
