Vice President Kamala Harris advocated for the removal of police officers from schools in an effort to 'demilitarize' school campuses, according to unearthed footage from 2019. 'What we need to do about … demilitarizing our schools and taking police officers out of school. We need to deal with the reality and speak the truth about the inequities around school discipline.
Our students are sending us warning shots, literally warning shots,' Peter Balas, a Alexandria City High School principal, said during an October 2021 meeting about bringing SROs back to campus. 'Please reconsider this. My staff, my students. We’re not OK.' In California, the Pomona Unified School Board voted to defund its school police in 2021. Just four months later, SROs were back on campus after a shooting near Pomona High School that injured a 12-year-old.
