Seattle’s Community Assisted Response & Engagement (CARE) department is expanding, but it’s being blocked from doing its job by the conditions laid out in the new Seattle Police Officers Guild contract. CARE is looking to circumvent these obstacles.

God they have done everything they can to stop CARE, even when the voters told them they wanted it they still try to stop it. Then they wonder why the public doesn't have trust in them. Maybe you at least let them attempt to do what we wanted them to do without trying to throw up every block in the path?
