Oaklanders have a dream too. We dream of a total transformation in how we define and implement public safety. We dream of REfunding our communities with 50% of OPD’s dollars and directing those dollars into programs, policies and practices that create true public safety. We dream of housing our unhoused and being able to afford our rent. We dream of an equitable and competent response to COVID-19. We dream of jobs that pay a living wage and schools with the resources to adequately educate our children. We dream of thriving communities that can heal, instead of being traumatized and terrorized by gun violence. We dream of a 100% progressive city government that reflects the values that are the heart and soul of our city.
