🚨TOMORROW City Council may block some Charter reforms that WERE possibly headed for your Nov. ballot: - Council expansion - Ranked choice voting - More LAPD oversight 📣Make your voice heard Fri 1pm at City Hall! ✍️Submit written comment: lacouncilcomment.com CF 26-0489

The Charter Reform Commission was created to tackle big issues like district size and elections. But instead of sending it to voters in November, Council might ask for “further study.” 🤨 Studying reforms like these is why the Commission was created in the first place!

My Office sent the Charter Commission 6 recommendations last August. At first, the Commission seemed ready to recommend 5 of 6. By the end, they only recommended 1 (enshrine Fraud, Waste, and Abuse). Tomorrow, the City Council Committee might kill that one too!

A recommendation of ours the City Council Committee actually DOES plan to move forward is a CFO for the City.  BUT instead of the elected Controller as CFO, they want to give it to an unelected bureaucrat (the CAO) who works for THEM.
