gotten our money back, some people have gotten credits, some people are out the entire expense,
whatever they put forward. You know a lot of these officers have young children and things like that and
you know it is just not fair to somebody to have this happen and then say to them, “Well sorry but we are
not going to give your granted time off and it is what it is’ especially when there’s nowhere to go even if
they wanted to. | mean it’s not like you can go to the beach or you can go to Florida. Everything is closed.

But it again is so that the Police Officers aren’t treated unfairly because of the COVID-19 pandemic. So |
would ask that we pass this.

Alderwoman Kelly

President Wilshire

Alderwoman Kelly, do you have what was amended?

Alderwoman Kelly

I’m trying to pull it up.

President Wilshire

OK.

Alderwoman Kelly

Give me just a moment. | don’t think it was anything from the actual Committee, | think it was just an
amendment from the original office in terms of what they were putting in there. Does that sound right,
President Wilshire?

President Wilshire

Yeah, | believe it is. | don’t think there were any funding changes.
