My name is Anthony Sosa and I am here today with Amber O’Dell and Michael Cambpell to discuss the Governor’s legislative proposal and press conference regarding “defunding the police” --hosted here in Fort Worth at the Bob Boland facility on the South Side of town. In this announcement the Governor and his compatriots fear mongered lawlessness and chaos in our streets if the police were defunded. He shamed the city of Austin for the decisions of their elected officials and is proposing legislation to be taken up in the next session that will punish any city that “defunds the police” by freezing their property taxes at the current level.
