The mayors of Memphis and Shelby County made major announcements on Tuesday that will have a direct impact on crime, quality of life and your household budget. actionnews5.com/2024/04/17/mem…
@WMCActionNews5 People thought this dude was really going to be different
@WMCActionNews5 Where is the part on how we deal with crime ? I want more police and da and judges that care more about victims and willing to scare criminals so badly they don't commit crime
@WMCActionNews5 Shelby County Mayor Lee Harris is lucky he enticed Mick Wright to join Democrats in raising taxes on Shelby Countians. Hope Mick liked the incentives he got!
@WMCActionNews5 I know one thing we cannot afford new taxes they've already went up on MLG and w families are already struggling and this could potentially start putting families out on the street
@WMCActionNews5 These leaders sell themselves as something new. Someone that can do the job. Just the right person to fix our problems. Then they propose the same ideas that have been tried and failed in Memphis and elsewhere.
@WMCActionNews5 This is what they came up with after their all Black Mayor Conference? More taxes, they should've all stayed home.
@WMCActionNews5 “It is a paradoxical truth that tax rates are too high and tax revenues are too low and the soundest way to raise the revenues in the long run is to cut the rates now.” —President John F. Kennedy to the Economic Club of New York, December 14, 1962
MPD confirmed to Action News 5 that the city recorded 108 homicides in Mayor Young’s first 107 days in office, including Officer Joseph McKinney, who was killed in the line of duty last week. ☝🏼☝🏼☝🏼☝🏼☝🏼☝🏼☝🏼☝🏼☝🏼☝🏼 More money from taxpayers for midnight basketball leagues will not solve the problem.
@WMCActionNews5 surprise, government wants more money. this has worked wonderfully every other time. you can tell from the ever decreasing crime rates😑
