OH: LA ‘defund the police’ councilman charged with perjury, embezzlement. “In 2020, in the wake of George Floyd’s death in Minneapolis, Price launched a proposal to cut $150 million from the LAPD and to reallocate those funds to youth services for black and brown communities. He also championed the creation of a social services unit to respond to non-emergecy calls, and fought to eliminate the enforcement of traffic laws, stating that they disproportionately affected black Los Angelinos.”
