ACTION ALERT: Hire cops with Community experience

Cops are supposed to work for community. We can hire for that experience, fam.

SB 5089 would give points in the hiring process to applicants who speak a language other than English, have experience in the peace corps, AmeriCorps, domestic violence counseling, in social service professions, or for completing crisis intervention programs.

Tell lawmakers NOW: Vote YES and pass SB 5089 off the Senate floor by the March 9 house of origin deadline.
