NYC Councilman blames Alvin Bragg for 'lawlessness' in House Judiciary hearing.

Democratic New York City councilman Robert Holden plans to testify at a House Judiciary Committee field hearing that Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg's policies have contributed to the "lawlessness" on city streets. Holden criticized Bragg's memo ordering prosecutors not to seek prison sentences for a slew of crimes and to downgrade charges, including for robberies and commercial burglaries. The hearing will examine how Bragg's policies have led to an increase in violent crime and a dangerous community for New York City residents. Holden described himself as one of two moderate Democrats on the New York City Council and slammed his Democratic colleagues as "socialists."
