California's schools have been falling behind for decades. Before the pandemic, CA ranked 39th in per pupil spending, had the most overcrowded classrooms in the country. We can’t afford corporate property tax loopholes at the expense of our schools and students. #YesonProp15

AB 3216 passed the California state legislature and is headed to Governor Newsom's desk. However, he has still not committed to sign the bill. We need to keep the heat on him!

Call Governor Newsom NOW to urge him to sign #AB3216 for a “right of recall” that will ensure that workers in the hardest hit industries have a chance to get their jobs back.

Working families need the security of knowing that they will have a good job to return to.

On November 2, Californians will be able to correct a historical wrong and invest critical resources in underfunded communities. Lets get Prop 15 passed so we can reclaim $12 billion/year for schools and local services!

Great news! The LA County Board of Supervisors voted unanimously yesterday to take the next step in establishing worker-led public health councils! Thanks for continuing to raise your voices in the fight to keep communities safe from Coronavirus.

"We applaud the Board of Supervisors taking a step toward establishing public health councils, which will make sure essential workers — who are largely people of color from the communities most impacted by COVID-19 — are centered in pandemic recovery.” - Roxana Tynan, LAANE Executive Director #CouncilsNotCOVID

"We owe a debt to these essential workers – these truck drivers, these longshore workers, these other essential workers who are stepping up with danger to them on the front line to make sure we get the food we need, the goods we order, and to keep our economy moving forward every single day.

And I want to give a special thanks to Ron Herrera and @thelafed, who’ve been feeding families, who’ve been stepping up, and for your leadership in fighting to ensure the safety of drivers."

Truck drivers at the port are a largely immigrant workforce who are at high risk of #COVID19 infection. Thank you @mayorofla and @portofla for standing with port truck drivers and making sure trucking companies provide their workers with basic protections.
