Tell City Council: Don’t Defund City Services for a Massive APD Raise!
Tell City Council to reject a proposed $218M raise for Austin police! This contract would cost too much and undermine the voter-approved Austin Police Oversight Act.
Council will vote on October 24 and can only vote “yes” or “no.” Join Equity Action and Austin AFSCME — the union that represents thousands of City workers — in urging City Council to vote NO. Austin police are already among the highest-paid in the state. Approving this raise would destroy Austin’s safety net programs — everything from mental health response and homeless services to parks, pools, public transportation, and more. Take action today!
