    Please don’t reallocate money away from the UBI pilot for roads. It’s a tiny amount of funding in the grand scheme of the roads budget, and it’s my understanding that there are other sources of funding for roads that are likely to be available soon. There isn’t another funding source for UBI. If we kill it now, it’s dead indefinitely. We shouldn’t throw away this opportunity that many have worked hard to realize that will benefit those who most need it in our community.

    Also, please don't deallocate money from the unarmed response proposal without a guaranteed replacement source of funds. From what I understand, the excise tax money has already been spent and is not available for this purpose, and a budget amendment has not been offered to provide this funding from any other source.
