The City of LA is suffering from a Budget Crisis, so what better way to spend $500,000 from the General Fund's Capital Improvement Fund? 🤔 Not on actual capital/infrastructure improvements (which we direly need), but on installing OLYMPIC FLAGS at City Hall! 🥳

LARGEST LIABILITY PAYOUTS FOR JULY 2024 💰 🚔 $20M: LAPD Bomb Squad detonated fireworks in a South LA neighborhood 💡 $10.5M: A fixture at the top of a street lamp fell on plaintiff's head 🚗 $1.85M: Plaintiffs’ daughter was involved in a fatal car accident at an intersection

THANK YOU all for coming out to CicLAvia and dropping by to say hello! It's always a great time seeing what a CAR-FREE Los Angeles can look like! 🚲🥳 Got a lot of people talking about our Olympics post and the transparency and accountability we're bringing to City Hall! 🔍💰

My Day 1 homegirl @eunissesh put into words exactly how I felt yesterday. How profoundly moving to share space with a multigenerational coalition of powerful, courageous women leaders of color. I stand on the shoulders of giants like @hildasolis, Eunisses and Dolores. ✊🏽💜

This week’s events are all about action and impact! Whether you're ready to learn, brainstorm, or just meet some amazing people, we've got something lined up for you. Let’s get out there, make waves, and drive the change we want to see. Who’s in? #CampaignEvents #JoinTheMovement

HOW ARE WE DOING? 🤔 One year ago today, despite financial warnings, the City approved $1 billion in raises for LAPD over 4 years to hire & retain officers. ONE YEAR LATER: 📉Officer # is down 204 (8,791 vs 8,995) 📈LAPD spent $122 million over their sworn labor adopted budget

What does this mean? 🤔 A year later, LA taxpayers are paying more $$$ for fewer officers.

LAPD's military equipment has harmed & cost taxpayers millions (e.g. $1.5M paid when LAPD shot a person, causing his testicle to explode) NEW AUDIT: LAPD is failing to fully comply w/ AB 481 to bring transparency & accountability to its military equipment bit.ly/ab481

💰UPDATE: Today, City Council approved $3.6M to settle a case where LAPD shot a man w/ military projectiles during a protest, seriously injuring his hand. Read our audit on LAPD’s compliance w/ AB 481 (Military equipment funding, acquisition, & use): bit.ly/ab481

🚨 LAST WEEK, City Council approved $48,065,238 in Liability Settlements 🚔 Police $44.1M 🚗 Traffic Collision $1.1M 🤕 Trip & Fall $1.5M 🏦 Other $1.3M Highest Amount $17.7M: An off-duty LAPD officer shot & killed a man w/ disabilities in a Corona Costco & wounded his parents.

HOW LA CITY HALL OPERATES 101 📝 ✅ City Hall cuts the Controller's budget for processing payroll & payments ✅ City Hall gets upset about inevitable delays in payroll & payments ✅ City Hall spends tax dollars on anything & everything else (installing flags, lawsuits, etc.)

🤔 Many of you ask: "What can we do?" ALL policy and budget/funding decisions rest with the City Council and the Mayor. That's where the power lies. So either you make your voice heard while they're in Office or you find someone else to run for these positions to represent you.

Meet some of our adoptable dogs from our West Valley Center! 🐾 🐶 Ren #A2157075 🐶 Berlin #A1770218 🐶 Max #A2156769 🐶 Xandra #A2152991 #lacitypets #adoptashelterdog #adopt #foster #cleartheshelters
