#AB421 has passed the Assembly! πŸŽ‰ One big step toward stopping corporate interests from using their wealth to manipulate and overturn laws. Next step is the CA Senate. Let's bring power back to the people

95% of landlords are represented by a lawyer in eviction court. But many struggling tenants simply can't afford an attorney, & legal aid groups are stretched thin. L.A. tenants need a Right to Counsel to level the playing field & prevent families from falling into homelessness.

A safe, affordable home shouldn't just be a privilege for those who can afford CA's sky-high housing costs. Everyone deserves a safe, dignified & affordable place to call home. We must #PassACA10 now! #HousingIsAHumanRight buff.ly/3MPP076

β€œIt’s critical that we all come together to come up with designs & policies that address multiple challenges at the same time because communities are facing multiple impacts at the same time" - Alvaro S. Sanchez on how to build the next generation of cities vox.com/ad/23733243/ne…

You can’t put a price tag on Mother Earth, because Mother Earth is not for sale❗️Cap and trade and offset programs do not directly reduce emissions at source. Carbon markets will not solve the climate crisis, they’re a cop out for big polluters to keep polluting #NoFalseSolutions

Take it from a landlord & real estate developer: "Renter protections are homelessness prevention." Brian Maienschein @AsmRobertRivas Damon Connolly families are becoming homeless faster than we can house them. Vote yes on #SB567 to prevent homelessness! buff.ly/3Pnepqk

No COP overseen by a fossil fuel executive can be seen as legitimate. COP Presidencies must be free and independent of fossil fuel influence. It’s time for the UNFCCC to deliver the long overdue equitable phaseout of fossil fuels. #COP28 theguardian.com/environment/20…

When people talk about homelessness they only care about visible homelessness overlooking the 20,000+ students, families & children sleeping in the cars in Los Angeles alone. #SB657 is about protecting all people before they are homeless.

Hitzke says she's able to make plenty of profit without harming families that rent in her buildings. So, if she can do that without jacking up rents and evicting renters, why can't corporate landlords? bit.ly/Landlord-suppo… #SB567 #HomelessnessPreventionAct
