Official statement from our coalition of community builders/organizers/advocates is out now! We're here for you all, & invite/encourage feedback. Please DM or email us with questions/comments/concerns. Open meeting tonight @ 9pm, UCAE.#chtown18
Honestly confused why media is endorsing 798. They claim to speak for local interests, but the only local business member they have on their proposal is the one who brokered the Walmart deal. How can they know what local businesses like us want if we're not represented?
BREAKING: Huang family from China, which donated $5 million for Song Foundation grant "to benefit Chinese international students studying in the U.S.," are furious that their money may instead go to startup incubator. #chtown18
someone’s gotta explain to this man what contingency funding means 🙄 also, we’re utilizing the resources of existing community organization. ain’t starting from scratch with us! 💖💖 #chtown18
798 LA representative @TonyLiu52398132 pokes holes in finances of LA Community First budget. As an example, he explains that they designated only $130 for yearly upkeep, but need at least $180K for annual cleaning costs. #chtown18
STATEMENT: @LopezForLA and I were going to PUBLICLY address rumors surrounding my involvement with the Walmart deal once the investigation had finished. We wanted to share the news once it broke, but @FakeTimesOfLA has sped up our timeline. Please DM me if you have questions.
at the end of the day we’re trying to re-unite a fractured community - I’m going to bed tonight with the hopes that we’ll be able to move past our differences & that folks will actually talk to the people in the community who need to be heard 💖🌟 #chtown18
