We must fully realize the promise of Care First, Jails Last for our youth involved in the juvenile justice system.
The young people in our communities deserve better.
I want @metrolosangeles to fund real safety strategies on transit! Policing on transit fails to keep riders safe. We must not double down on this failure and create a Metro police. Fund programs/infrastructure to make transit riders feel cared for!
I'm thrilled to announce that @EmilianaGuereca has been named as the Third District's 2023 Woman of the Year!

I’m proud to be the youngest woman ever elected to the all women @LACountyBOS.
This #InternationalWomensDay, we need the perspective and experience of women more than ever. Lets resolve to end sexism and break down our patriarchal society by uplifting women and girls every day.
Since its creation 20 yrs ago, DHS has targeted immigrants + communities of color by using $1.4 TRILLION in taxpayer dollars that could have been used to care for our communities. @POTUS, cut funding for @ICEgov and @CBP + close immigration detention centers! #DefundHate#DHS20
It’s time for Congress to stop funding agencies that waste taxpayer money + undermine our values. Instead of giving billions to @ICEgov + @CBP to jail immigrants, funds should be redirected to health care, education, housing + programs that benefit all of us. #DefundHate#DHS20
TODAY, over 170 orgs sent a letter to the Biden admin demanding an end to all ICE detention contracts expiring in 2023.
Biden must act urgently to release people from detention, cut contracts & shut down facilities permanently. #CommunitiesNotCages
