Another example? The military you see out on your streets ahead of the Chauvin verdict.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u201cBiden, they continued, \u201cis currently sending more military equipment to our neighborhoods than Trump did. You read that right. Our communities are being terrorized at a greater rate than they had been under Trump.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The account referenced several cities\u2019 efforts to forestall massive unrest if Derek Chauvin, the former Minneapolis police officer accused of killing George Floyd, had been acquitted of Floyd\u2019s murder. Cities like Minneapolis, Minnesota, and Chicago, Illinois, deployed a full contingent of armed vehicles for crowd control, in an effort to prevent the kind of looting and destruction that took place following Floyd\u2019s death last May.<\/p>\n<p>The tweets, though, are also part of a larger effort to shutter the federal government\u2019s Law Enforcement Support Office, also known as the \u201c1033 Program,\u201d which allows local and state police departments to purchase tanks and other surplus and decommissioned military equipment for use in cities.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cApril 30th marks President Biden\u2019s 100th day as president \u2014 and we\u2019ve got a major demand for him before that deadline: End 1033,\u201d Black Lives Matter notes on its website. \u201cHere\u2019s what you need to know: The Law Enforcement Support Office, known as the 1033 Program, allows the transfer of surplus military-grade equipment to local law enforcement agencies across the country. It includes school and campus police, too.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOver $7 billion has gone to the law enforcement agencies since its creation under the Clinton administration. Disappointingly enough, the flow of military equipment to police under the 1033 Program has accelerated under the Biden administration,\u201d the group noted. \u201cIf we want President Biden to take swift action before his 100th day in office, then we need a lot of voices speaking out right away.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Language limiting the 1033 program is included in the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act, and racial justice organizations had hoped that President Joe Biden would place his own restrictions on military equipment transfers through an early executive order, the way President Barack Obama did back in 2015 (President Donald Trump repealed those restrictions with his own executive order in 2017). Biden passed on the opportunity.<\/p>\n<p>The Defense Logistics Agency, which tracks the 1033 transfers does note that military to law enforcement transfers were up in the first quarter of 2021 \u2014 the first quarter of Biden\u2019s presidency \u2014 but it did not specify what equipment was being transferred.
