As our communities continue to experience the devastating impacts of this pandemic, our County leaders have important decisions to make and our movement must continue to fight to ensure they support the health and well being of ALL Angelenos. On Tuesday, July 21, the LA County Board of Supervisors will be voting on important items to set the course for a just recovery. Please send a message right now urging your Supervisor to:

• Extend the Eviction Moratorium until at least September 30;

• Renew the LA Justice Fund to provide due process for undocumented immigrants;

• Allow workers to establish Public Health Councils to help limit covid's spread.

• Place the "Re-Imagine LA County" initiative on the November ballot to create permanent funding for Alternatives to Incarceration strategies, prioritizing investment in communities most impacted by systemic discrimination and criminalization;

We need the Board of Supervisors to feel the pressure, especially about the eviction moratorium extension. Send a message to your Supervisor today to let them know what you and your community need!

Keep LA Forward Going Strong

There is still time for you to vote for the LA101 Guide to win critical resources to continue our community education and leadership development programs!

LA Forward and Inclusive Action have been leaders in the work of the Healthy LA coalition to pass crucial policies that protect renters, fight predatory real estate companies, and provide essential support during the COVID-19 pandemic. Through our local organizing and coalition building during the last decade, we’ve learned how LA really works — not just who’s elected and what they do, but how power operates behind the scenes. Now we want to share that knowledge in a way that’s easy to understand. Which is why we're creating the LA101 Guide to local government, politics, policy and more.

We need your help to make LA 101 a reality. Voting ends TODAY at 5 PM Pacific so please cast your ballot for us to win $100,000 NOW! With your vote, we can secure the resources needed to expand the LA 101 guide, get it into the hands of Angelenos everywhere, and do even more education programs with communities across LA County.
