The budget includes a $63 million increase in spending for the police compared to the previous year, marking a 9% increase from the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/san-francisco-dem-mayor-wants-more-funding-for-police-after-slashing-budget-in-2020\/\" title=\"San Francisco Dem Mayor Wants More Funding For Police After Slashing Budget In 2020\">2022-23 fiscal year<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3>Increased Police Funding and Other Proposals<\/h3>\n<p>Under Breed&#8217;s requested fiscal budget, police would receive a total of $787.9 million. In February, Breed announced an additional $27.6 million in police overtime to make up for the shortage of officers. In addition to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/democratic-rep-mary-gay-scanlon-falsely-claims-philadelphia-never-defunded-police\/\" title=\"Democratic Rep. Mary Gay Scanlon Falsely Claims Philadelphia Never Defunded Police\">increased police funding<\/a>, Breed also proposed an additional $200,000 to hire three prosecutors for the district attorney\u2019s office, who would be dedicated to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/san-francisco-mayor-asks-for-63-million-more-for-police-amid-crime-wave\/\" title=\"SF mayor requests M extra for police due to surge in crime.\">cases involving open-air drug markets<\/a> in the city.<\/p>\n<p>The Department of Public Health would receive the biggest increase in the proposed budget, with an additional $238 million in the 2023-24 fiscal year combined with the $3 billion they received in the 2022-23 fiscal year. This amount would be decreased by $25 million in the 2024-25 fiscal year, but would still give the department approximately $3.2 billion.<\/p>\n<h3>San Francisco&#8217;s Crime Problem<\/h3>\n<p>Crime has been a growing problem for San Francisco, with several businesses leaving the city due to theft on retail stores. In a report released last month, almost 400 jobs are set to be cut in the San Francisco area after Nordstrom decided to close two locations over &#8220;dynamics&#8221; of the city&#8217;s downtown area. Comedian Dave Chappelle recently made a surprise appearance in the city and joked that the city needs its own Batman to address its crime issues.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Click here to read more from the Washington Examiner.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>San Francisco Mayor London Breed&#8217;s budget proposal for 2023-24 seeks a $63 million rise in police spending from the previous year.
