This thread is the perfect example of how a broken police system puts innocent Black lives at risk. A Black store owner calls the police to report a robbery, and he ends up with a broken jaw after being beaten by police. — PolitiTweet.org

The public doesn’t serve you—you serve the public. Throwing a tantrum in a press conference doesn’t erase your officers needlessly beating New Yorkers this week. https://t.co/VN5zuCC74L — PolitiTweet.org

Using facial recognition software as mass-surveillance for law enforcement is a dangerous violation of human rights that could further racial bias. This is positive news from @IBM. Now @amazon should follow their lead. https://t.co/PVtfVqDJXK — PolitiTweet.org

Julián Castro @JulianCastro

Domestic abuse is a big problem among police officers. Offending officers are treated with kid gloves. Complaints against them must be throughly investigated and prosecuted. A police officer convicted of domestic violence should no longer carry a badge. https://t.co/lwZP6nWz9S — PolitiTweet.org

Julián Castro @JulianCastro

I said throughout my campaign that police violence wasn’t a case of a few bad apples—the system itself is broken. It’s inspiring to see so many San Antonians and Americans standing up to demand change. https://t.co/JkGvul7rdW — PolitiTweet.org

Julián Castro @JulianCastro

The ideas put forward in my policing plan—ending qualified immunity, a database of officer misconduct, a national use of force standard—were the product of years of work by Black organizers. It’s great to see many of them adopted in @HouseDemocrats’ Justice in Policing Act. — PolitiTweet.org

Julián Castro @JulianCastro

The U.S. spends an unnecessary and growing amount on policing every year—money that could be spent on education, housing, or public health. It’s time to reverse our over-reliance on policing and invest in people and communities instead. https://t.co/1E201IgXJg — PolitiTweet.org

Julián Castro @JulianCastro

Today we launched People First Policing to elect candidates who are committed to reversing our over-reliance on police. I’ll join MSNBC’s @AliciaMenendez at 4:40pm ET/3:30 CT to discuss efforts to overhaul policing in our country. https://t.co/Cy8jWrWNya — PolitiTweet.org

If you believe in ending police violence, reversing our over-reliance on policing, and holding police accountable, pitch in what you can to help elect People First Policing candidates. https://t.co/Cy8jWrWNya — PolitiTweet.org

Julián Castro @JulianCastro

As State Attorney in Cook County, Illinois, @KimFoxxforSA has been a visionary for a more fair and just criminal justice system. She's running for reelection to ensure all people are treated equally under the law, and I'm proud to stand with her in that fight. https://t.co/xlC5omW04o — PolitiTweet.org

Julián Castro @JulianCastro

In Texas, @JosePGarza understands the urgency of transforming our criminal justice system and reducing over-policing and over-incarceration. As Travis County District Attorney, he will put the needs of the people of Texas first. https://t.co/DQPzwSMtVF — PolitiTweet.org

Julián Castro @JulianCastro

In California, @GeorgeGascon will be a champion for change if elected to District Attorney in Los Angeles. George has a consistent and strong record of holding the powerful accountable, and he will be a leader that fights for the important changes Los Angeles needs. https://t.co/p8rdPdksUJ — PolitiTweet.org

Congresswoman @AyannaPressley has led the charge in the pursuit of justice and accountability for police violence. She's already introduced legislation to overhaul policing, and will continue to be the moral leader we need in the fight against systemic oppression. https://t.co/0mXWQVZB6x — PolitiTweet.org
