Keep the city of Dallas, Texas safe.

The Issue

We ask that Mayor Johnson and the Dallas City Council re-fund the recently defunded Dallas Police budget. We recognize that the overtime budget, which was cut, is necessary for the police to deal with potential civil unrest surrounding the contentious election season. Therefore, we ask that Mayor Johnson, City Manager T.C. Broadnax, the Dallas City Council, and the Dallas Police Department put together a comprehensive preparedness plan to deal with potential civil unrest to prevent the tragic situations that befell unprepared cities like Portland, Chicago, and Kenosha. Dallas needs a strong, well funded, and responsible police department to protect its citizens and prevent the anarchy that has taken root in other cities.
