City Controller Laura Chick’s published opinion editorial in the L.A. Daily News underscoring her opposition to L.A. Charter Amendment RRR, today the Neighborhoods Against the DWP Power Grab released a 30-second online ad featuring the City’s beloved former taxpayer watchdog. In the ad, Chick urges Angelenos to reject Charter Amendment RRR and calls it a “bad deal for the people of L.A.” To watch the digital ad, click on the link below: Former L.A. City Controller Laura Chick’s audio in the ad states: “It took a lot of hard work for me to earn the title of L.A.’s taxpayer watchdog. With that title comes a great sense of responsibility. That’s why it’s my duty to tell you that Charter Amendment RRR is a bad deal for the people of L.A. It reduces voters’ say. It limits your decision-making powers over multi-million dollar contracts and rate hikes at the Department of Water and Power. It’s no secret that the DWP needs reform, but RRR means less accountability, not more. Vote No.” To check out Chick’s opinion editorial in the L.A.

    MEDIA RELEASE For Immediate Release October 21, 2016 Contact: Dave Jacobson, (818) 943-2348 Maclen Zilber, (510) 508-9142 Jacobson & Zilber Strategies ACLU, L.A. CO. GREEN PARTY JOIN EXPANSIVE COALTION OPPPOSING L.A.'S RRR American Civil Liberties Union SoCal & L.A. County Green Party Say No to L.A. Charter Amendment RRR LOS ANGELES, CA -- On the heels of rolling out a new online video featuring former L.A. City Controller Laura Chick who urges Angelenos to vote no on Los Angeles' Charter Amendment RRR, today the Neighborhoods Against the DWP Power Grab announced that the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) of Southern California and the L.A. County Green Party both recently joined the chorus of those opposing the measure. In making their opposition public, the ACLU of Southern California posted on their website the following statement: "NO on RRR: Gives Los Angeles Department of Water officials too much power and restricts voters’ say on precious resources: clean water and renewable energy "Measure RRR is a misguided measure that will give the L.A. Department of Water (LADWP) officials too much power and make the department far less transparent and accountable to voters. "Measure RRR transfers oversight of the LADWP from the city council to the DWP Board of Commissioners, enabling unelected commissioners to run the department. This means the DWP Board will have the power to spike rates and spend millions on contracts and salaries without any of the existing oversight and approvals from voters and elected officials. The measure also means the LADWP would hire from outside the Civil Service system, which provides objective procedures for hiring and allows employees to transfer among departments depending on their skills, their needs, and the city’s needs.
