.@Citibank The EACOP pipeline is already displacing Ugandan and Tanzanian communities and will only accelerate the climate crisis. Stop bankrolling @TotalEnergies so we can #StopEACOP!
.@AIGInsurance While we experience another year of climate disasters and scorching heat waves, companies like @AIGinsurance continue to insure fossil fuel projects that destroy our planet. Drop EACOP now!
Open meeting Wednesday May 8th.
We'll be taking a deep dive into the creation/history of the LA City Ethics Commission & run through some updates on the charter reforms moving forward.

People deserve clemency - not just turkeys @GovernorKayIvey. Rocky Myers has been on Alabama's death row for three decades for a crime he did not commit. Grant Rocky clemency! #JusticeforRocky.
The sister and sole surviving family member of Gary Dickerson supports clemency for Will Speer, the man who killed her brother. Join her in telling the TX Board of Pardons and Paroles to #SaveWillSpeer. Sign the petition to stop his execution: https://t.co/SAh5gyjuu1
We are outraged by @GavinNewsom's veto of the #HOMEAct, AB 1306 by @AsmCarrillo!
The Governor's decision is cruel, callous, and cowardly.
When policy-making is driven by vanity and crass ambition rather than sound judgment, all Californians suffer.
