The San Francisco Police Department will provide security for the event, according to a news release from the Officers Pride Alliance. Firefighters and sheriff’s deputies said they also would not march during the June 26 parade down Market Street.
The SFPD Officers Pride Alliance announced the decision Monday. San Francisco police said they will not march in this year’s Pride Parade in protest over organizers’ new decision not to allow officers to wear their uniform during the annual LGBTQ event.
