    Do NOT defund or police department! If anything, they need a budget increase for training, equipment, salaries and supplies. The old saying “you get what you pay for,” rings true. Please keep our community safe that my self, husband, father, grandfather, uncle, cousin, brother and so many others have fought for in the military. We need the police or crime will sky rocket out of control. We fully support the Phoenix Police Department.

    Please do NOT defund the police! We need them and they are already short staffed. Crime and chaos will go up. What will happen when you need help and no one shows up. They need funding to continue education and training along with up-to-date equipment. Please listen to what we are saying!

    I fully support funding the police and keeping the budget as is!!! It would be a horrible decision to decrease funding for the Phoenix Police Department. I believe it would have a huge negative impact on the residents of Phoenix.

    To cut budgets of our police officers
    Would in turn lead to cuts of personnel. This would but more stress on those officers left to carry the load. Leading to greater mistakes.
    No. Our officers need more help and more support to do their job well.
    We need to take undo stress off them from within so they can concentrate more on the task at hand.

    Fully support funding ! We need the protection and safety that they offer to the community. Decreasing funding will only do a lot of harm to the community.

    Defunding the police department is not the answer. There needs to be funding to provide proper training, mental health screenings, hiring and retention to ensure your loved ones get the absolute best service in their most desperate time of need.

    Give the police and fire department the money they need. If changes want to be made, trainings need to be done. Trainings take money. We want more officers for better call response times and to ensure our safety. Let’s give the department the money they need and give them the chance to show us how they can work for and with us. Let’s show the country how it’s done.

    Support

    Police officer need their budget for proper training so Phoenix does not end up like other cities. The budget helps with safety equipment amongst other things.

    I support the original budget. The PD needs these funds for equipment and training to keep the officers as well as the community safe. Defunding is not the solution.

    I support funding 100% for the Phoenix Police. I currently feel that the police department is underfunded for the number of officers that are able to respond to calls for service. Officers are expected to deal with a wide variety of situations on a daily basis, and I support increased funding for training and accountability to help them do that responsibly.
