Congresswoman Kim Schrier has secured $660,000 in federal funding for body-worn camera technology thanks to her efforts. The pediatrician from Sammamish, representing Washington’s 8th congressional district, successfully advocated for this funding through a rigorous and methodical Community Project Funding request process.
Schrier emphasizes that the decision-making process for allocating these funds is not arbitrary and involves input from a panel of individuals from both parties. During an event in Wenatchee, she celebrated the funding victory alongside local officials such as Wenatchee Mayor Mike Poirier, Chelan County Sheriff Mike Morrison, and Chelan County Commissioner Shon Smith.
The event included a demonstration of the new body camera technology, with attendees getting a glimpse of how the technology works. In the midst of these positive developments, it’s important to remember the importance of body-worn cameras in law enforcement. The recent release of body cam footage from the Boise Mall shooting serves as a stark reminder of how crucial these tools are for transparency and accountability in policing. The tragic event in Boise last year showcased the value of body cameras in capturing critical moments and providing an accurate record of events.
