Bellingham spends nearly one third of our general fund on BPD
Imagine what we could do if we invested in our people instead of incarceration.
We call for a 50% cut to the police budget for 2021/22 with a reallocation to housing and social services providing for our community.
Our long term goals are for police & prison abolition.
