LAPD union rejects $10M plan to back 2022 candidates as 'defund police' grips political hold
The union representing rank-and-file Los Angeles Police Department officers rejected a "Protect Our Profession" proposal, which aimed to raise $10 million in union dues to support candidates in 2022 elections who oppose the "defund the police" movement. Los Angeles Police Protective League, which represents approximately 9,800 officers, asked members to approve the plan last month that would have collected $22 per paycheck over a nearly two-year period, the Los Angeles Times reported Monday.
