Uptown Minneapolis Police Funding vs. Violence Prevention Flyer

A flyer about Minneapolis 2020 budget priorities is posted on a building in Uptown Minneapolis. The poster compares funding for law enforcement and violence prevention, stating that 13 percent of the city budget, or $193 million, went to the Minneapolis Police Department while 2 percent, or $24.1 million, went to the Health Department for violence prevention. The flyer was produced by Pillsbury United Communities and calls attention to spending choices during a period of debate over public safety in Minneapolis.
