Imagine having the OPPORTUNITY to make LA City Hall work better, more democratic, more responsive, & more transparent and accountable? 🤔
The status-quo bureaucrats & the political establishment are fighting HARD against those Charter Reforms and they are gaslighting all of you.

Los Angeles is the second most populous city in the United States, yet has 15 council members. New York City has 51, and Chicago has 50. Furthermore, Los Angeles must switch its voting system from the Louisiana jungle primary to ranked-choice voting. 🧵👇🏿
🚨TOMORROW City Council may block some Charter reforms that WERE possibly headed for your Nov. ballot:
- Council expansion
- Ranked choice voting
- More LAPD oversight
📣Make your voice heard Fri 1pm at City Hall!

🤝HELP MAKE CITY HALL MORE ACCOUNTABLE! (In less than 10 mins!) ᯓ➤
The Controller’s Office should have an independent budget (NOT decided by Mayor & Council).
An independent budget would protect us from political retaliation.
YOU can help! Email your Councilmember:
Does City Hall VALUE transparency, accountability, & oversight over nearly $45 BILLION ANNUALLY that gets spent of YOUR TAX DOLLARS? 🤔
We'll find out Friday!
Tell your Council Member to support giving the Controller's Office an INDEPENDENT BUDGET!

In the email:
- Ask your Councilmember to support a Charter proposal that gives the Controller an independent budget of no less than 0.42% of the General Fund
- Say why it’s important to you (i.e., more accountability in City Hall)

THANK YOU ALL for sending emails!
It takes just a few minutes but makes a BIG difference.
Your email could lead to the City Charter giving the Controller an independent budget.
It could lead to more accountability in City Hall for decades.

If your landlord is cutting services, ignoring repairs, or pressuring you to move out, you may have protections under the City of LA’s Tenant Anti-Harassment Ordinance (TAHO).
Renters can visit lataho.org to learn their rights and access free resources.
