Friend --



This is not a test! This is not a drill! We need you to join us now and take action to protect Senate Bill 2 and protect police accountability & transparency in California! We only have until Thursday at midnight to Protect Senate Bill 2!



Senate Bill 2 (Bradford, 2021) was passed by our policymakers and signed into law by the Governor to ensure police who are bad actors are held accountable when they break the law, abuse their power, and act with misconduct. SB 2 created a pathway to decertify officers who engage in serious misconduct and commit crimes.



Unfortunately, a critical transparency piece of SB 2 is at risk of being secretly canceled without the public’s knowledge.We can’t let this happen, click here to demand Governor Newsom protect Senate Bill 2, uphold police transparency, and rebuild public trust. <[link removed]>



When activists, lawyers, law enforcement, and lawmakers negotiated SB 2, a critical provision was added stating all records introduced during decertification proceedings “shall be public.” This means that POST, the law enforcement agency responsible for conducting decertification proceedings, must respond to public records requests. And who, besides corrupt cops, would object to disclosing records relating to police dishonesty, abuse of power, physical abuse, sexual assault, and bias? Help us demand transparency and accountability, click here to sign and send a letter in a few minutes opposing the weakening of SB 2! <[link removed]>



We need your help to protect a critical piece of the law being unraveled behind closed doors. We must let Governor Newsom and our policymakers know that we won’t accept secret dealings behind closed doors that prevent the public from accessing information and records about serious police misconduct, criminal acts, and abuse of power. Police are not above the law, and the public deserves to know when they break their oath to protect and serve and cause harm to our communities. Will you take action now and let Governor Newsom and California representatives know you oppose the secret weakening of Senate Bill 2?  <[link removed]>



Together we can continue to drive a vision that helps keep our communities safe and thriving.
