In a wide-ranging interview on “A Closer Look,” Rep. Hank Johnson, D-Georgia, had strong words for the new federal budget plan passed by the Republican majority in Congress.
Johnson, whose district includes Rockdale County and parts of DeKalb, Gwinnett and Newton Counties, also discussed his recent speech on the House floor – in which he said, “It feels like open season on black men in America.”
Johnson also spoke with Rose Scott and Denis O’Hayer about his bill to put more restrictions on bids by local law enforcement authorities to acquire military-grade equipment from the U.S. Defense Department.
