The Defund the Police coalition held a virtual press conference Wednesday to outline its recommendations to improve public safety in Oakland and at the heart of the matter was the Oakland Police Department’s budget.
The group argues the department gets too much money and that much of that funding should be redirected to community programs who they say would be more effective in dealing with some of the city s biggest issues.
They also say pulling police from responding to traffic violations and non-violent mental health calls would free up more officers to deal with violent crimes and it would cut down on what they call unnecessary confrontations and escalations.
