We call on all of you to join today's meeting, support the call to defund OPD & demand that they DENY OPD’s request to absorb that $2Mil. Together, we will decide where that money is invested and ensure that we will all benefit from the resources it will fund!

URGENT! - Despite our recent victory of eliminating OSPD we are facing further attempts to undermine our work for police free schools, by the request from OPD to reallocate those OSPD funds into their budget. Call in tomorrow & demand they DENY this increase & further DEFUND OPD!
