#DefundThePolice is a demand to cut funding and resources from police departments and other law enforcement and invest in things that actually make our communities safer: affordable housing, universal health care, community based mental health services, living wage employment, education. 

New Hampshire Youth Movement is supporting the efforts of our local BLM chapters to Defund the Police in Manchester, Keene, and Dover. Sign this petition and fill out this form if you want to join our efforts to fight racial injustice in NH!

At a time when our communities are suffering from the ravages of COVID-19 and racial injustice, we believe it is both cruel and unecessary to raise local police budgets, for any reason. Vital services in our cities are already going underfunded - public education, mental health services, houseless outreach, and more. My signature below is a demand for my local officials to vote down any budgetary proposal that includes an increase to our police budget. Defund the police and reinvest in our communities!
