One moment, please...

Because next year’s budget seems SUPER relevant when considering layoffs of last week (incl potential union-busting activities involved in laying off staff who were known to have signed up for nascent SWU union!), plus the EXPANDING police budget … I’ll add to this thread to talk about this year’s budget. #SomervilleMA #SomerPoli #MAPoli

Here’s the FY27 budget book, which city council is will discuss tomorrow night/tonight at city hall, in the annual budget hearing: https://city-somerville-ma-cleardoc.cleargov.com/23272/902298/d

This is incredible. I want to share about the work that Allie O'Brien is up to, as primary elections continue in the U.S.

Allie is someone I've followed for a while now. They made a map of viable progressive candidates. I believe California wrapped up voting yesterday, sadly, but numerous other communities still have an opportunity to get solid people into the race - people who will actually fight for us.

So please check this out as you can. One voting guide you can find is Allie's, called Allies Against AIPAC. Recommended. Qasim Rashid has a group on here, too.

I don't know that I can support Graham Platner at this point, but it could be that people are making a good argument for them.

Please be involved in PRIMARIES somehow - event if that's just reading a bit and noting when your community has one ^

NOT an exhaustive list, but these are states that look to be active still:

#California #Colorado #Illinois #Maine #Massachusetts #Michigan #Missouri #NewYork #Pennsylvania #Texas #Wisconsin

Everyone please check this out even if your state is not listed above.

At least 16 officers have left their jobs recently, following a revelation that they were using license plate readers like Flock to stalk ex-partners or romantic interests. Shocking.

Boston, we have them here:

Noting that DeFlock can be .org or .me since both direct you here. Have people organized a DeFlock Boston yet? I believe some neighbors have been fighting Flock.

Resistance to Flock Cameras and Police Surveillance Is Exploding

Backlash to Flock cameras and AI systems is exploding after scandals, including police using the tech to stalk women.
