MADISON, Wis. — U.S. Senate candidate Mandela Barnes Thursday released a series of law enforcement endorsements, which come amid conservative criticisms of his stance on law enforcement issues.

The coalition includes former Madison police officer and school board member Gloria Reyes, who said in a release Barnes is “dedicated to providing law enforcement the resources they need.”

Conservatives however, have criticized Barnes — tying him in ads to liberal members of Congress who have advocated for law enforcement reforms, including defunding the police.

Claims that Barnes wants to abolish Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) were clarified in News 3 Now’s Reality Check series which found Barnes does not want to abolish ICE or defund the police, despite claims made in campaign ads.
