Citizens Against Proposition A consists of grassroots organizers, activists, civic leaders and educators that have long advocated for local control of the St. Louis Police Department. Since TRANSPARENCY and ACCOUNTABILITY have been at the heart of our efforts the remaining members of the coalition CANNOT in good conscience support this ballot measure as it will result in Local REPRESSION instead of the Local CONTROL that we’ve always fought for.
