Coalition for Police Contracts Accountability

"Only Gery Chico, Amara Enyia, LaShawn Ford, Lori Lightfoot, and Toni Preckwinkle marked “yes” when specifically asked if they support the 14 recommendations as proposed by CPCA in response to the ACLU’s candidate questionnaire." https://t.co/Zh9Zmax9nu

Katelyn Johnson explains that the community is ahead of some of the candidates on police reform, and it’s time for the candidates to catch up. https://t.co/Zh9Zmax9nu

We agree with @ACLU_Karen that "until we change the structures that govern Chicago police officers, they will feel they have nothing to lose by lying." One of the MOST important structures is the FOP contract, which @CPCAChicago has been working to change. https://t.co/cPEwMJxP1R

Police contracts are one of our targets @CPCAChicago Prisons are not going go make us safer from white supremacy, regardless of how many killer coos we send. The expired police union contracts and that lack of transparency with these alderman is another ongoing, long term fight

[CPCA Chicago @CPCAChicago]

We are angered by the acquittals today, but we are not surprised. Chicago's police contracts contain so many provisions designed to hide misconduct. The City needs to know Chicagoans demand contracts that make police cover-ups a punishable exception & not “standard procedure.”

We will need to continue pressing for changes to the #FOPcontract if we want real #PoliceAccountability and #CPDReform. Join the movement by following @CPCAChicago

[CPCA Chicago @CPCAChicago]

For those counting, yesterday aldermen approved $4.5 million to end three police misconduct lawsuits. #ReformFOP

[CPCA Chicago @CPCAChicago]

This can be problematic: City liability and costs are increased in the case something goes wrong; increased likelihood of burnout if cops are not taking adequate breaks between on-duty and off-duty stints; &More. Like all City employees, cops should report secondary employment. https://t.co/Hlem9QowK2

Ald. Reilly resurrects stalled plan to let merchants hire moonlighting cops https://t.co/SH4ZxNDkpE #ilpolitihub

[Chicago Lawyers' Committee for Civil Rights @ChgoCivilRights]

Another way to address this in the #FOPcontract: Reduce years of seniority for officers who have repeatedly faced suspension, as called for by @CPCAChicago #ReformCPD #PoliceAccountability https://t.co/xZ1eXn8bQV via @mdoukmas

The affidavit requirement is one of many provisions in the #PoliceContract that turns the #CodeofSilence into official policy. #ReformCPD #PoliceAccountability

Reb GoldMarche @JCUA_News, “We call upon all of you...to make sure everyone in our city knows that it has been a year since these police contracts expired. We need your help to urge Chicagoans...to call their aldermen and women, the mayor, Kevin Graham.” #700milltoomuch

“The expired police union contract dissolves data by ignoring or destroying valuable info allowing bad practices & habits to continue & get worse in a loosely monitored environment.” #700milltoomuch #CPDREFORM

The police union's contract expired one year ago Saturday — and groups will rally this morning a Daley Plaza to push for a new deal https://t.co/lOlSneb88d by @HeatherCherone
