SAN ANTONIO – San Antonio community activists who spent the summer marching and speaking out at San Antonio City Council meetings asking leaders to cut funding to police are feeling deflated after the city council on Thursday approved a nearly $486.5 million police budget for FY 2021. Activists wanted the police budget to be cut and funds to be allocated to community programs. The attention for activists now turns to next year’s budget, but primarily to the October 2021 contract negotiations involving the city and San Antonio Police Officers Association. “Having lost the fight on the city budget, these groups are now gearing up for a larger battle -- to repeal our civil service and collective bargaining rights. The City Council and the people of San Antonio should make no mistake: this “repeal” movement is just one more way to defund police!,” he said.
