Donate to Fixin' San Mateo County (FxSMC)

Your donations will enable us to get the message out about the importance of civilian oversight and its many benefits; write a strong, legally solid ballot measure; secure enough signatures to put this measure before the voters; and to work for its passage and creation of a strong, independent, and transparent oversight process in San Mateo County.

Benefits of Oversight:

• Protect civil rights
• Support effective, fair policing
• Ensure greater accountability
• Create transparency
• Lower liability costs to taxpayers
• Build trust between law enforcement and the community they serve

Your lawyer has oversight. Shouldn't your Sheriff?

Your doctor is subject to the oversight of the Medical Board of California; your attorney's conduct is subject to review by the State Bar of California. If you have an issue with a doctor or lawyer, there is a formal process of reviewing those complaints. There is no such process for the county Sheriff's Office. Members of the Sheriff's Office are given power to enforce the law; we're seeking a trusted, independent review process to ensure that it is equally applied to everyone.

Please note: Because our work is political in nature, your contribution is not tax-deductible. But it does help make our county an even greater place to live.
