    Hello, All:  <br>
    <br>
    <br>
          Councilmember Oliverio's proposal to increase police from 30
    to 40 percent of the general revenue was voted down 10 to 1 by the
    San José City Council yesterday.  "[C]ritics including the police
    union had written off the Willow Glen councilman's plan as a
    political stunt. City budget officials said they would have to cut
    all other departments by about 30 percent to make the new spending
    plan work." (<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext"

    <br>
    <br>
    <br>
          Thanks to any who attended and spoke against the measure or
    wrote their councilmembers.   <br>
    <br>
    <br>
          Best Wishes, <br>
          Spencer <br>

    ################<br>
    <br>
    <br>
          Please come to the City Council meeting Tuesday, 2 PM, if you
    can.  Councilmember Oliverio wants the City Council to vote then to
    increase the San José Police budget from 30 to 40 percent of the
    general revenue;  see below.  <br>
    <br>
    <br>
          I think this is a serious mistake, possibly leading to an
    increase rather than a decrease in crime.  <br>
    <br>
    <br>
          The incarceration rate in the US today is 5 times what it was
    40 years ago.  No change in crime correlates with that.  I know of
    only one change during these past 40 years that can explain that: 
    Consolidation of ownership of the mainstream commercial media with a
    massive reduction in investigative journalism.  The air time left
    open by this reduction in investigative journalism was filled by
    increasing coverage of violent crime.   This fear mongering
    convinced the public to support stiffer prison sentences. <br>
    <br>
    <br>
          We need evidence-based public policy, not fearmongering.  In
    particular, we need to better understand what programs keep kids in
    school and out of prison and what prison and release programs
    minimize recidivism.  <br>
    <br>
    <br>
          One example was the one-year Perry Preschool program in 1962
    that became the prototype for Head Start.  By age 40, only 28% of
    the Perry Preschool kids had served time in jail or prison vs. 52%
    of the matched control group.  <br>
    <br>
    <br>
          This was only a 1-year intervention.  With more serious
    interventions, I believe we can virtually eliminate the school drop
    out problem and with it the violent crime that justifies law
    enforcement.  <br>
    <br>
    <br>
          However, to do this, we need more flexibility in how the
    general revenue is spent.  <br>
    <br>
    <br>
          Thanks, <br>
          Spencer Graves<br>

                                      charter amendment would be the
                                      ONLY legal way to guarantee that
                                      police would always be the top
                                      budget priority. With a budget
                                      increase, opportunities would
                                      arise to put more police officers
                                      on the street, raise salaries, and
                                      make technology purchases that
                                      would lead to greater operational
                                      efficiency.  Currently, a higher
                                      concentration of police officers
                                      are deployed in the Downtown and
                                      East side districts, thus leaving
                                      other areas to suffer from
                                      increased property crimes and
                                      quality of life issues. My
                                      proposal would solve that. A
                                      larger, better compensated police
                                      force would lead to more
