@NikkitaOliver One of the things that was so heartbreaking about this campaign was seeing youth organizers who were fighting this cage grow up over the literal years this effort took. This city owes the #nonewyouthjail campaign organizers and @NikkitaOliver a huge debt of gratitude. Thank you.
1- why only by 2025? Why not now?
2- Increased reliance on electronic home monitoring doesn’t count as zero youth detention.
3- We’ll believe it when we see it.
4- Why did the county build a $233 million jail when they could’ve built a $20 million youth achievement center?
Veto proof majority!! Let’s keep the pressure on... can we get to 9/9? So far we have Mosqueda, Gonzalez, Sawant, Morales, Strauss, Herbold, and Lewis. Will Juarez and Pedersen join us? #DefundSPD#PayTheFee#FreeThemAll https://t.co/HEp64L4x0M
KEEP UP THE PRESSURE!!
As a people who have historically benefited from the institution of police, we have a responsibility to advocate for its abolition. #DefundSPD
DAY 3 of KEEPING THE PRESSURE ON with CARW! We are MOBILIZING TOGETHER and in solidarity with @DecrimSeattle & @KCEquityNow and others calling to DEFUND the SPD by 50%. We are building momentum each day as we move towards a critical vote on the city budget in the next 2 weeks!
