"I think more money can go into housing. Also, being put back into communities."

"We want to do things in partnership and this tech is opposite to that."

Here at 24th and Sawyer in Little Village to #StopShotSpotter and cancel their contract in Chicago Image
Alex with ACRE: Most folks should be here - including Adam Toledo. Investing in Shotspotter is choosing to take away opportunities. We are here to let the city know that’s not happening anymore. It’s not happening because we keep us safe. Image
