The Amp: Census Push, Justice for Breonna Taylor
In this week's Amp, we call for counting everyone in this final week of Census enumeration. Trillions of dollars in decisions about community resources over the next decade will be based on the count. We also look at yesterday's news that no charges were filed against the officers who killed Breonna Taylor. Our recent Beyond Policing report offers communications resources in the movement to #DefundThePolice and end tragic stories like Taylor's.
