Just in: Raleigh City Council approved a $5M increase to the police budget despite large opposition from residents. The City Manager stated the increase was a "mandated requirement by the state," which is false.

"More than 20 speakers denounced a proposed $5M funding increase for Raleigh Police, which came under fire for using tear gas against protesters, involvement in the deaths of multiple men of color since 2013, and drug-framing Black residents." indyweek.com/news/wake/rale…

The mayor of #Raleigh threatens to send in the cops after her own residents during public commenting. This speaks VOLUMES of how much she cares about citizen engagement and human rights and the rights to expression.

BREAKING: The NC Senate just passed #HB805, an anti-#BLM bill intended to stifle free speech and the right to protest. There’s still time to stop it from becoming law. Urge your state Reps. to stand with the people by voting NO on HB805: rebrand.ly/RejectHB805 #NCGA #NCPOL
