Too much is at stake to wait, so go to 8cantwait.org and reach out to your mayor's office by phone, email or social media today. #8CANTWAIT REQUIRE EXHAUST ALL ALTERNATIVES BEFORE SHOOTING BAN CHOKEHOLDS & STRANGLEHOLDS REQUIRE DE-ESCALATION WARNING BEFORE SHOOTING TOGETHER, THESE 8 POLICIES CAN DECREASE POLICE VIOLENCE BY 72%. 自 DUTY TO INTERVENE REQUIRE ALL FORCE BE REPORTED ESTABLISH USE OF BAN SHOOTING AT MOVING VEHICLES FORCE CONTINUUM VISIT 8CANTWAIT.ORG TO FIND YOUR CITY, CALL YOUR MAYOR, AND DEMAND CHANGE RIGHT NOW.
