Some of LA's governing rules and structures are broken, and we have a critical opportunity this week to fix them! LA City's Charter (the city's constitution) has been undergoing a years-long reform process — and at every step, more potential reforms are being cut or delayed. In the next few days, the Rules Committee (just 5 councilmembers) will decide which reforms advance to the full City Council for consideration next week.
Join us on Wednesday for a teach-in to learn what's at stake and how YOU can take action. We'll cover how we can save reforms that expand the number of City Council seats, and reforms to strengthen police accountability. The number of city council seats has not changed in 100 years, leading to corruption and poor representation. And the Police Chief can’t even fire officers with a history of misconduct. You read that right. Join us to save these and more crucial reforms!
