VOICES

VOICES-From 1987 to 1993, Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) was an Assistant United States Attorney for the Central District of California.

VOICES--I’ve been a voter in LA County for over 40 years and this is the most disorganized I have ever seen in my history of voting. 

VOICES--This may be a non-issue, but while walking my dog today I noticed some trucks with the "City of LA" logo on them.  One of them was a rental truck (from Herc Rentals) full of tools and pulling a small utility trailer of some sort. 

VOICES--As a first-generation immigrant, the daughter of a warehouse worker, a 30-year dues paying member of LA City Employees’ Unions (SEIU & EAA), and a proud K-12 LAUSD alum, I am and always have been committed to improving the community where I live. (Photo above: Grace Yoo is on the left.)

VOICES--I wish to file a complaint against the CalPERS Legal Department for leading the Board of Administration into a violation of Government Code Section 11126.3 (a) on the November 18, meeting. (Photos above: LA DA Lacey and CA AG Becerra 

VOICES--LADWP has been working closely with LAFD investigators to inspect electrical equipment that was believed to have been struck by a dried tree branch near the location where the Getty Fire is suspected to have started.

VOICES--I am writing you to request cure and correct for actions taken by the Olympic Park Neighborhood Council (OPNC) in violation of the Brown Act.   I am including a copy of my October public comment which I presented partially to the Board, to which I only read up to “Members of the OPNC have been found to communicate city business through personal email accounts.”

GUEST COMMENTARY--African-Americans continue to bear the brunt of bad policy.  Whether its abortion rights, gentrification, gun control, and/or police brutality, Black lawmakers always ignore the unintended consequences of their voting power. 

VOICES--The question of what happens to people forced from their homes due to politics has a long history, but from where I come from – Los Angeles, a destination for all manner of refugees – the answer usually means new neighborhoods appearing with names like Little Saigon and Little Armenia.

VOICES--If you were watching the confirmation hearings of U.S. Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh and, for no particular reason, were wondering if it was possible to remove a Supreme Court justice after he was confirmed to his lifetime appointment, the answer is yes. The framers of the U.S. Constitution included a process to do just that. That said, it has never really been done successfully. Yet.

VOICES -- Today, Trump Administration officials visited Los Angeles to learn more about the city’s response to the homelessness crisis.

URBAN PERSPECTIVE-- The site will be the home of the Los Angeles Chargers and the Los Angeles Rams plus Super Bowl LVI in 2022 and the College Football National Championship in 2023 and the opening and closing ceremonies of the 2028 Olympic Games. (Photo by Kirby Lee, USA TODAY Sports via Reuters)
