The GOP-led House Judiciary Committee announced plans to hold a field hearing in Manhattan focused on violent crime in the borough.
The panel will hold an April 17 hearing at the Jacob K. Javits Federal Building in downtown Manhattan entitled, "Victims of Violent Crime in Manhattan."
The hearing "will examine how Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s pro-crime, anti-victim policies have led to an increase in violent crime and a dangerous community for New York City residents," according to an advisory sent out by the committee, which is led by Trump ally Rep. Jim Jordan . Committee spokesperson Russell Dye said members of both parties are welcome to attend but it's unclear if Democrats would accept the invitation.Bragg's office has pushed back on the GOP's crime narrative, noting last month that homicides and shootings in Manhattan have declined since Bragg took office last year.
"New York remains one of the safest big cities in the U.S. with a far lower murder rate than the most populous cities where the Committee Chairmen hail from – Ohio, Wisconsin, and Kentucky," a spokesperson said.Between the lines: It's likely the closest the panel will come to having an opportunity to actually grill Bragg himself.
