In Oakland City Council meeting. @ACSOSheriffs will apparently withhold mutual aid to OPD if they ban tear gas, which is currently on the table for discussion. Chief Manheimer and Vice Mayor Reid are therefore opposed to toothless res. to urge against use.
Councilmembers seem not to have known about this, this is a big reveal for everyone. Berkeley's recent ban means they will not receive mutual aid.
Of note, @LibbySchaaf is not present, though she was called out explicitly by many of the over 150 public commenters in the beginning of the meeting.
Phew, just jumped off that call, it was nearly 8 hours long. I definitely had to multitask for the vast majority of it (public comments). They are holding a special council meeting on 6/23 @ 1:30 PM. Thanks to all who called in to #DefundOPD. Now round 2.
My mistake, they changed the time to noon after I dropped off.
Should have tagged this thread #oakmtg apparently 
I am not hip with the hashtags, just trying to figure out how to be okay at being a civilian.
