The time for action is now – Sign here! Mayor Wilson is proposing to cut every other public service EXCEPT PPB In a time when we should be making cuts to police and investing in the services and programs that truly make our communities safe.
The current proposed budget increases police funding from the General Fund by $12 million, bringing the Portland Police Bureau’s (PPB) total budget to $318 million for the 2025-2026 fiscal year. PPB is the city bureau with the largest share of the General Fund—34% in 2024-2025—and the 2025-2026 proposed budget will bring it to 38%. This is all while Portland is looking at a huge $65 million budget deficit!
