  • Ordinance to Prohibit Oakland from Acquiring And/Or Using Face Recognition Technology
    July 16, 2019 Councilmember Rebecca Kaplan, Council President Councilmember Dan Kalb Councilmember Nikki Fortunato Bas Councilmember Lynette Gibson McElhaney Councilmember Sheng Thao Councilmember Noel Gallo Councilmember Loren Taylor Councilmember Larry Reid Oakland City Council 1 Frank H. Ogawa Plaza Oakland, CA 94612 Re: Proposed Ordinance to Prohibit Oakland from Acquiring and/or Using Face Recognition Technology Dear Councilmembers, The ACLU of Northern California writes to express strong support for Council President Kaplan’s proposed prohibition on the City’s acquisition and use of face recognition technology being considered as Item 7.7 at the July 16, 2019 City Council Meeting. The legislation will safeguard Oaklanders against dangerous, invasive, and biased systems that endanger their civil rights and safety. We urge you to adopt the ordinance and position Oakland at the cutting-edge of municipal technology oversight, joining the ranks of San Francisco and Somerville, Massachusetts in ensuring decisions about advanced surveillance technology are firmly under democratic control. This letter explains several reasons the Council should adopt the prohibition. 1. Face recognition technology grants City departments unprecedented power to identify and continuously monitor Oaklanders, amplifying bias in law enforcement. Face recognition technology enables the government to automatically track residents’ identities, whereabouts, associations, and even facial expressions. Using existing video cameras and officer-worn body cameras promised as officer accountability tools, government agencies can create unfettered citywide networks that place Oaklanders under continuous surveillance. The powerful and automated nature of face recognition incentivizes the needless expansion of surveillance in Oakland communities. People should not have to fear having their movements and private lives logged in a database simply for walking down the street.

Ogawa Plaza Oakland, CA 94612 Dear Oakland City Council Members: As you know, beginning in 2020, a 15-member independent Redistricting Commission made up entirely of community members will re-establish boundaries for Oakland's City Council and School Board of Directors Districts. On behalf of the League of Women Voter of Oakland, we request that you actively support the solicitation of Commission applicants from your respective Districts. The application period is now open and extends until April 1, 2020. The applicant pool must contain a minimum of 40 applicants, with at least three candidates from each existing City Council/School Board District. In August a Screening Panel will narrow the list to 30 applicants that it recommends serve on the Redistricting Commission. Their list must contain at least two candidates from each District. The 15-member Commission itself must contain at least one Commissioner from each of the seven current Districts. The application process requires considerable effort and many people will not meet the strict application criteria. In addition to District representation, applicants should reflect the geographic, racial, ethnic and economic diversity of Oakland, and have the relevant analytical skills, ability to be impartial and apparent ability to work together well with other potential commissioners.

    The League of Women Voters - where hands-on work to safeguard democracy leads to civic improvement January 20, 2020 Oakland City Council City Council President Rebecca Kaplan Vice Mayor Larry Reid President Pro Tempore Dan Kalb Council Member Nikki Fortunato Bas Council Member Lynnette Gibson McElhaney Council Member Sheng Thao Council Member Noel Gallo Council Member Loren Taylor Oakland City Hall 1 Frank H. Ogawa Plaza Oakland, CA 94612 Dear City Council Members: The League of Women Voters of Oakland (LWVO) requests that the Oakland City Council direct the City Attorney to withdraw the City’s appeal of the October 15, 2019, Superior Court decision in the case of Jobs & Housing Coalition v. City of Oakland. The court ruled that the Council’s certification of Measure AA as “passed,” despite the fact that it did not receive the two-thirds vote the City Attorney had determined was required, constituted “a fraud on the voters.” For over a year the League has spoken out against the certification, and repeatedly asked you to nullify the Council’s certification action of December 14, 2018. You chose instead to be sued by the Jobs & Housing Coalition rather than to act. You chose to let the court decide. When the court did decide -- against the City -- you voted to appeal that decision. You took such action in closed session on November 5, 2019, and did not immediately report it in public session as required by state law and city ordinance. LWVO and other members of the public learned of the appeal by rumor and then through news reports of the court filings.
