Congratulations to Mayor McMorrin , sworn in last night as the new mayor Culver City. A working mom, a compassionate leader, a powerful voice for social change, and the first Black woman to hold the post, she is going to do a tremendous job.

I haven’t been on Twitter in a while. But last night was historic - so sharing 💙 Grateful for community always 🙏🏾 #CulverCity

The Supreme Court is about to make it illegal to have a blanket on the street. Completely criminalizing homelessness. Here’s everything you need to know in 60 seconds.

This is a great video explaining why the Grants Pass case going to the Supreme Court could have devastating impact on our unhoused neighbors.

The city's apparently trying to revise the ordinance in a more inclusive direction, but trans and nonbinary voices need to be a part of the conversation, or the end result will be harmful, especially to vulnerable trans and nonbinary teenagers. Read more: ourculver.org/blog/an-anti-t…

The Third District's first Pathway Home operation brought 25 Santa Monicans inside. Providing housing and services continues to be our number one priority, and partnerships like this one with City of Santa Monica are crucial to solving this crisis.

While deaths from fentanyl are surging among LA’s unhoused, it’s important to note that “all other causes” of death are rising, too. EVERY cause of premature mortality, including unsafe drug use, is exacerbated by homelessness. It magnifies every social inequity.

I don't really have the words to describe how grateful I am for this day. Deep thanks to staff and community. A special thanks to those who consistently believe that more is possible 💙

Culver City collaborated with LA on this sweep, and we now know the results— 2/52 people who wanted shelter got it. That’s < 4%. The data confirms what we already knew — sweeps don’t work.

Some wins and some losses, but I always appreciate exercising our right to vote, especially with this little election expert

Our “Fund This!” Town Hall was a huge success. Close to 100 Culver City neighbors came together to learn how Culver City spends its $175 million General Fund! We still want to hear from you! Let us know what you’d like to see prioritized in Culver City ourculver.org/survey

No one should be punished for being unable to afford rent or a home. My colleagues, advocates & I called on SCOTUS to choose housing NOT handcuffs & reject efforts to criminalize our unhoused communities.

SCOTUS is hearing oral arguments on #JohnsonVGrantsPass. Arresting and citing people for being unsheltered is ineffective and keeps people homeless for longer. There are alternatives to arresting people that communities can act on now. Learn more: johnsonvgrantspass.com

Workers who serve people on the streets are ones who have the fewest resources – both for their clients AND themselves. New analysis from the Alliance's Homelessness Research Institute takes a closer look: buff.ly/4b8Frte

The city finally released its report on 41.18, and they dropped it on a Friday afternoon for a reason, because the results are BAD. Over 1,000 arrests, nearly 2 million dollars on signs, and only 2 people permanently housed. Thread below, or full report: clkrep.lacity.org/onlinedocs/202…

You didn’t provide the needed affordable housing. You’re choosing political expediency over real solutions. That’s not leadership, it’s cowardice. This will only worsen homelessness.
