Impressive! Not sure most people have wrapped their heads around the progress made on #homelessness in LA in the last 100 days.
On my first day on the job, I didn’t go straight to City Hall – I went directly to the Emergency Operations Center to declare a state of emergency on homelessness. Since then, we’ve taken bold action–and we will continue our work to confront this crisis. mayor.lacity.gov/news/mayor-…

Headline of new Rand report ought to be "we used different methodology, used a different data set and guess what? We came up with different numbers!" We need constructive actionable #homeless research. This could have been helpful, instead... latimes.com/california/story…

Are those of us concerned about #disinformation and meaningful safeguards on social ready to #QuitTwitter? I'm looking at Mastodon.

Congrats big beautiful #YesonULA community. So happy to see LA ready to tackle our homelessness/housing crisis at the scale we need.

Opponents of #yesonULA have thrown ethics and honesty to the wind. I’m told they are also pushing the lie that property taxes will rise. Truly despicable.

This is a hugely important story that makes sooooo clear why third district voters should weigh in for Lindsey.
Thanks to @SpecNews1SoCal for making clear who’s funding our campaign - people of District 3! - and who’s funding @hertziela - his pay-to-play Sacramento connections, hoping to buy a seat on the #LACounty Board of Supervisors A #VOTE for #TeamLindsey is a vote for the people.

If you are serious about solving LA’s critical issues this should be a no-brainer. I’m with @KarenBassLA b/c she is the BEST candidate with a long track record of committed, courageous, authentic, strategic, people-centered leadership. #Vote #KarenBassForMayor – at West Hollywood, CA

Just a couple of reasons why LA Democrats and progressive voters should vote for @LindseyPHorvath. Pls share. Her opponent has the dough to stuff everybody's mailbox. We need her supporters to share widely. TY!

It's getting to be awfully loud chorus with one simple song: Resign!
The hateful comments by sitting LA Council Members and LA's top labor leader about communities of color, including Black and Oaxacan people, have been rightfully and roundly condemned. I stand in solidarity with those calling for meaningful action to remove them from power. 🧵
