    Do what is right for the people who choose to put themselves in harms way for the community. One of the most thankless jobs for some of the most courageous individuals. If Phoenix is to continue to grow and be a positive example for the rest of the state, then pay, and therefore recruit, the right personnel to keep the community safe. The police department has been understaffed for too long and treated poorly along the way. Make it happen. Take pride in this city again.

    VOTE YES and support our police who put their lives on the line every day. I believe we need the best, brightest and most well-trained police force to protect and serve the citizens of Phoenix. Those that are trying to defund the police don't care about the citizens of Phoenix they are only interested in their agenda to divide America. Thank you for your support of the blue.

    I support increased pay for our police officers to ensure the residents of this city have confidence in its leadership. With a decline in a police force, you will see a movement to the outside of your boundaries towards the suburbs where people feel safer.

    Please pay our police a living wage to keep them on the force and also to bring in officers to replace the ones we've lost!

    This citizen is in full agreement with proposed minimum/maximum pay rates for Police recruits through Police Chief. We must be able to attract and retain quality police officers for our city. We do not have enough police officers to meet the needs of a growing city.

    Please support. As the largest city in the Valley, Phoenix must ensure that police are paid more than any other area city to attract many more highly qualified officers. We are critically short. My area supports police who put their lives on the line EVERY DAY to protect us. As violent crime rates continuing to rise (24% increase in homicides 2021/2022 YTD!) it's more critical than ever now. Public safety must be the #1 priority for the mayor and council. It certainly is for Phoenix residents!

    Please pay our police for the amazing services they do for our city and state. They are risking everything to protect our streets. I am in support of increasing budgets to give them more funding.

    Funding for our law enforcement is crucial to forming safe neighborhoods. It's vital to the survival our communities that the people feel protected. They need to know that they can safely walk their own neighborhoods and enjoy the parks without fear.

    Please pay the Police Force a competitive salary to retain and attract good men and women to protect us. Do not DEFUND our Police. Please support them.

    Please support our hardworking police force. They need aggressive compensation for their hard work, their dangerous work, and their difficult work. They need all the gear and equipment to defend against these more violent and dangerous criminals. Please support our police force. Thank-you.

    I don’t know who opposers are going to call when they need the help of a policeman if we keep defunding and treating them terrible.

    I support the police and the difficult jobs they do. Yes, there are always bad ones as in any profession. Most of them are men and women who care about public safety.

    Please support our Police. They put their lives on the line every day for our safety. The least we can do for them is to pay them a reasonable and decent wage.

    Vicki Bacs almost 3 years ago

    Please pay our police officers for what they do. They need a living wage, and incentive to fight for us every day, with the risk they are put under. PLEASE vote YES on this!

    Let's pay our police officers a reasonable and decent wage. They deserve this and as the 5th largest city with a depletion of public safety officers, we need to have a more attractive salary package for those who put their lives on the line every single day. Let's get current with today's practices, and support our men and women in blue.
