My name is Fatima and I write here as an OC resident urging the council to oppose consent calendar
item #7. Across California, police have illegally shared license plate data with ICE and Border Patrol,
therefore implementing ALPRs puts much of the Anaheim community at risk. This automated ticketing
also furthers stark racial disparities in criminalizing low-income Latino, Black, and immigrant
communities, as shown by ProPublica's Chicago case studies. We can and should prioritize safer streets
without increasing surveillance--for example, this could look like implementing speed bumps, rethinking
urban planning, and increasing availability of public transportation.
