| The San Francisco Examiner published a pledge signed by sixteen current and former elected officials, including San Francisco Public Defender Mano Raju: City leaders pledge to reject SFPOA support. The leaders also urged other officials and candidates to reject the support of the SF Police Officers’ Association. |
“The poa must acknowledge and publicly apologize for its past words and actions. It must commit to fighting racism within its ranks and its leadership. Individuals fighting bias within the SFPD should be given leadership roles—not retaliated against. And the POA must cease blocking reform measures.”
