Memphis’s Crime Problem Has Become Ours. That Ends Now.
MAKE MEMPHIS PAY ACT
Tired of Memphis’s Soft-on-Crime Policies Endangering Our Families?
Repeat offenders are crossing into DeSoto—and we’re left paying the price.
✅ McLendon is taking action:
DeSoto County Border Enforcement Division
Felony Plate Readers at All Major Entry Points
Legislation to Make Memphis Pay Their Fair Share
DeSoto County is paying the price for Memphis’s failure to enforce the law.
Soft-on-crime judges and prosecutors in Memphis are turning repeat offenders loose, and DeSoto residents are bearing the financial and safety burden when that crime spills across the state line.
That’s why McLendon will introduce legislation to create a DeSoto County Border Enforcement Division and enhance acquisitions of felony plate readers at all major entry points to track and intercept stolen vehicles and wanted offenders before they reach our streets.
The legislation will also propose a formal partnership with the Tennessee Legislature to address Memphis’s prosecutorial failures and recover shared costs of cross-border crime.
If Memphis won’t control its crime, we’ll make them pay for the mess they send our way.
Back McLendon’s Plan. Protect DeSoto.
