Police union billboard claims Richmond is in crisis because cops need more pay

City cops are getting the community involved in their wage war by unveiling a billboard on Interstate 95 South and Interstate 64 East near Arthur Ashe Boulevard.

The Richmond Coalition of Police calls it “informing the public,” but Mayor Levar Stoney says it’s “bush league.”

That part of the highway will have hundreds of thousands of cars, trucks and SUV’s rolling through, with a lot of eyeballs seeing a message that the city is in crisis.

“I really want to spread awareness to the citizens,” said Brendan Levy, from the Richmond Coalition of Police. “I don’t think they really know how bad it is and how few officers are on the streets.”

“For this organization to spring a new pay plan during a pandemic doesn’t make a lot of sense,” said Stoney. “They could’ve been more strategic about it, maybe asked for this a few years ago, but we never heard a word. I’m glad we supported them this year and gave them two pay steps. This in one year I’m willing to sit down further, but tactics like this are bush league.”
