Today the LA County BOS took a significant step towards a vision of democracy based on trust & collaboration.

LA County voters will get to vote in Nov. on Board expansion, an elected CEO, an ethics commission, and periodic charter review (every 10 years).

More reforms are still needed (incl. better process), but this is a positive first step in the right direction.

Today we sent a coalition letter to City Council urging them to establish a Supplemental Civic Assembly to support and augment the Charter Reform Commission's work. An Assembly will bring more voices to the table and provide significant public engagement, deliberation, and trust.

Thx @joemmathews for calling for a citizens' assembly to rewrite LA's charter. Angelenos from all walks of life ought to co-create our city's governing document. A commission of political appointees alone will never match the experience & ingenuity of a body of everyday residents
