Stop Mayor Lurie's Removal of Max Carter-Oberstone
According to Mission Local, "[On February 4th, Mayor Daniel Lurie] moved to oust outspoken police commissioner Max Carter-Oberstone as part of an attempted overhaul of the body that oversees the San Francisco Police Department. "
A hearing on this will be held by the SF Board of Supervisors on 2/25. Information can be found here via Legistar. This letter campaign contacts all of the Board of Supervisors, and urges them to oppose removing Commissioner Max Carter-Oberstone. Letter writers are encouraged to attend the hearing in person to submit commentary and voice their displeasure with this attempt to install a Mayoral loyalist on the police commission.
Max Carter Oberstone is known for refusing to go along with Mayor London Breed's attempts to expand dangerous police chases, for voting in favor of policies aimed at reducing racially biased traffic stops, and for advocating for independent oversight and reform of the SFPD. His reforms have made him an enemy of the SF Police Officers Association; now the Mayor is looking to remove him in favor of a compliant stooge.
