ACCE Los Angeles leaders showed up in force on Tuesday to support CM @nithyavraman and oppose Council President @mhdcd8 decision to split up Housing & Homelessness Committee and remove Raman as chair. We believe this looks like political punishment for Raman running for mayor.

🎉 A major win for California’s low-income communities & utility justice. As California families face record-high electricity rates and over $3.5B in utility debt, we shouldn’t be punished with a power shutoff when dangerous heat puts lives at risk. calmatters.org/environment/2…

Inflation explains some price increases, not corporate price gouging. Companies often use moments of crisis (ex: wars, supply chain disruptions, economic uncertainty) to push prices even higher than their actual costs Working people and taxpayers end up paying the difference.

❌ You should not be asking: "How do I survive another price increase?" ✅ You should be asking: “Why are working people and taxpayers expected to absorb every crisis, while corporations continue making record profits?”
