An activist collective led by Black Lives Matter is trying to capitalize on shifting public opinion, and the demands include major cuts in funding for the Metropolitan Police Department. The District of Columbia Council had indicated it would push for up to $15 million in cuts, but District of Columbia Mayor Muriel Bowser is defending her 2021 budget proposal, which includes a 3.3% increase in police money.
