Money from liberal billionaire George Soros is fueling an initiative to "dismantle" and replace the Minneapolis Police Department, campaign finance records show.
The Open Society Policy Center, an advocacy nonprofit in Soros' network, provided a $500,000 donation to Vote Yes 4 Minneapolis in November, one month after it was established, the records show. The group, a coalition of at least 33 activist organizations, is pushing a ballot initiative to amend the city charter to replace the police department with a public safety agency.
Since then, Vote Yes 4 Minneapolis has raked in slightly more than $1 million in total cash, according to campaign finance records released Tuesday, with Soros' being the most significant contribution.
"Open Society is a longtime funder of efforts to secure racial justice and equity," an Open Society Policy Center spokesperson told Fox News. "We're proud to support local organizations who are engaging their elected leaders, city officials, and neighbors on how best to achieve community safety and well-being.
