As someone who has been very lucky in life, I often say my story would only have been possible in America — and that’s true. But I also know that because of the artificial barriers of discrimination, my story likely would have turned out very differently if I had been Black, and that more Black Americans of my generation would have ended up with far more wealth, had they been white. Building Generational Wealth for Black Families is Critical. That’s why I launched The Greenwood Initiative in Tulsa last month. I visited the site of the Black Wall Street Massacre, where a white mob decimated the prosperous community of Greenwood. It is to the memory of the lost lives and promise of Greenwood that we’ve dedicated The Greenwood Initiative: a plan to address the systematic bias that has kept Black Americans from building wealth. THE GREENWOOD PLAN WILL: • Create 1 million new Black homeowners • Double the number of new Black-owned businesses • Invest $70 billion in the country’s 100 most disadvantaged neighborhoods Fixing the System for Black Families. When I was mayor of New York, I was proud to take on the systematic inequality that held back too many New Yorkers. We increased education funding, built 650 new schools and raised Black graduation rates to record highs. We led an ambitious effort to reduce poverty and managed the largest amount of affordable housing in the nation. And as President, I will work even more aggressively to combat inequality nationwide. I understand that undoing generations of systematic discrimination won’t happen overnight, but we can make progress with a clear vision and a comprehensive plan. I’ve included a pamphlet along with this letter that lays out my plan. When I’m President, implementing The Greenwood Initiative will be a top priority. Join me in ending the systemic inequality that has held Black Americans back for too long!

Spring Street Los Angeles, CA 90012 Re: OPPOSE CF #15-0002-S2l5 (Buscaino) regarding Opposing California Coast National Monuments Dear Mayor Garcetti, Council President Wesson, and Councilmembers. While we at the Sierra Club have been spending a great deal of political capitol on getting President Obama to make 5 national monument designations to protect some of America’s greatest wild places before he leaves office in 7 months, we have not forgotten the protection of the largest ecosystem on our planet, our living oceans. With less than one percent of federal waters protected along the continental United States, we have an opportunity to set an important precedent on the West coast and protect these scientifically significant places today, before the current U.S. Presidential Administration leaves office. These ancient islands, underwater volcanoes and deep-sea mountain ranges support extraordinarily high productivity and host relatively large concentrations of a variety of species. Marine scientists and conservation organizations have long noted the scientific significance of these special places. Left intact, protected seamounts, ridges and banks can serve as refuges and centers of resilience for a unique array of species and habitats in the face of activities that alter the seabed, as well as climate change and ocean acidification Long-term deep-sea protections would complement those offered by California’s landmark coastal network of marine protected areas established in 2012, by connecting coastal and nearshore protections to offshore, deep-water habitats.

    X October 29, 2019 cga The Honorable Herb Wesson President, Los Angeles City Council 200 North Spring Street Los Angeles, CA 90012 RE: "Fair Work Week” Ordinance Dear Councilmember Wesson, On behalf of Los Angeles Grocers, I write to urge the Council to include that preference is given to creating consistency with similar existing ordinances in California in the "Fair Work Week” ordinance recommendation. The Bureau of Contract Administration (BCA) Implementation Recommendations are a sampling of policy pieces from a variety of jurisdictions. These pieces of various policies will likely not, when taken in whole, result in the intended outcomes for workers and will be unwieldly to implement for retailers. We believe that existing California ordinances should serve as an additional guide when drafting policy as they are proven solutions that have been tested. It is important to recognize that existing California scheduling ordinances include many similarities with the BCA recommendations, including providing schedules 14 days in advance, predictability pay for schedule changes, and estimation of hours to be worked. Including a preference for consistency with existing California ordinances does not deter from the stated goals by Council, it instead broadens the scope of specific policy options in order to create a better ordinance overall. Based on our industry's experience in other California jurisdictions we believe there are several policy options that would be of value to both employers and employees. An example of these policy options includes a period of time after schedules are provided to employees for employers to make schedule adjustments without penalty in order to create a flexible environment for employers to make necessary changes, which is to the benefit of employees.

  • MEMORANDUM To: Mayor Eric Garcetti Council President Nury
    MEMORANDUM To: Mayor Eric Garcetti Council President Nury Martinez Chair of the Immigrant Affairs, Civil Rights, and Equity Committee, Councilmember Gil Cedillo From: embRACE Equity Alliance Subject: Community Demands for the Development of the Office of Racial Equity Date: October 19, 2020 During 2018 and 2019, the embRACE Equity Alliance (Alliance) — a broad coalition of Los Angeles-based organizations committed to racial equity — held over 125 community dialogues focused on building multiracial solidarity and advancing racial equity. Following the dialogues, the Alliance determined that stronger action was needed to address structural racism and that, as a first step, the City of Los Angeles (City) should establish an Office of Racial Equity (ORE). The City Council responded in December 2019 by passing a unanimous motion to explore creating an ORE. In doing so, the Council declared that “racial inequities that exist in Los Angeles are not accidental – they are the result of various historic, systemic, and socioeconomic factors, including biased and discriminatory government decisions, policies, and practices.” Amid this backdrop – and recent protests against anti-Black police violence and a City budget that perpetuates such violence — Mayor Eric Garcetti announced that the City would create an ORE by July 1, 2020. He also announced that the ORE would be placed within the newly established Department of Civil and Human Rights (DCHR). While the Alliance of organizations are enthused around this bold step to move forward with the ORE, as critical 1 of 5 partners, we were not engaged on the front end, nor have specifics been provided to ensure that the ORE is more than a symbolic gesture.
