YES ON PROPOSITION 1

Vote YES on Proposition 1 for guaranteed statewide protections for our reproductive health.

Proposition 1 amends the state constitution to affirm as strongly as possible Californians’ rights to access abortion and contraception. Prop. 1 will enshrine existing privacy and equal protection guarantees around reproductive health in our state constitution.   

Abortion and contraception access fights are part of a larger movement towards true reproductive justice, which means that everyone has the right to make their own decisions about their lives, families, and futures.  

Vote YES on Proposition 1 for guaranteed statewide protections for our reproductive health. 

YES ON MEASURE A

Vote YES on Measure A for sheriff accountability in L.A. County.

Measure A amends the L.A. County Charter to keep the sheriff accountable by authorizing the removal of a sheriff if they commit serious violations of the public trust — such as breaking the law, lying in official statements, obstructing investigations into deputy misconduct, or failing to stop deputy gangs from brutalizing our communities. 

The county has a long history of sheriffs abusing power, disregarding the law, and obstructing civilian oversight. These issues go deeper than just one sheriff. Measure A finally establishes long-overdue checks and balances to hold our sheriff accountable, because no sheriff should be above the law. 

Vote YES on Measure A for sheriff accountability in L.A. County. 

YES ON MEASURE ULA (L.A. City)

Vote YES on Measure ULA for affordable housing and support to people who need them most.

Measure ULA establishes a mansion tax for millionaires and billionaires in the City of Los Angeles that would reduce houselessness by buying, building, and preserving affordable housing, sending cash support to low-income seniors and disabled people who are in danger of losing their homes, and making the most significant investment in tenant protections in the city's history to ensure that Angelenos can stay housed.   

This measure was written by L.A.’s not-for-profit houselessness and housing experts — not politicians. It will also institute strong oversight with an independent board of experts and a dedicated inspector general to ensure immediate and concrete results.   

Vote YES on Measure ULA for affordable housing and support to people who need them most. 

YES ON MEASURE H (PASADENA)

Vote YES on Measure H for a stable and affordable Pasadena.

Measure H establishes rent control in the City of Pasadena, enacts “just cause” eviction protections to reduce housing displacement, creates an independent rental housing board to preserve affordable housing and implement tenant protections and provides for relocation benefits under certain circumstances.  

California’s housing crisis impacts renters, homeowners, middle-income families, and low-income families in different ways. With increasing rent, stagnant wages, a continuing pandemic, and evictions and houselessness on the rise, it’s never been more vital to protect renters.  

Vote YES on Measure H for a stable and affordable Pasadena.
