The LA Charter Reform Commission's Ad Hoc Committee finally executed their reform purge. Time to fight back.

Tell the FULL Commission to purge the Ad Hoc Committee instead, and put real reform back on the table.

A six-person subcommittee tasked with narrowing down Charter Reform proposals punts on police reform ideas submitted by community groups, council members. The full commission can still revive them.

Oh man, I actually love this idea. Why should adults be the only ones making decisions for them? They should have a voice, and this is a great way to active them in important processes like voting at an earlier age. Give them the opportunity to buy into their future and I think you’ll be surprised.
Thank you Councilmember Eunisses Hernandez!

CM Hernandez is the 1st City of LA elected official to offer their support for allowing "residents 16 and up to vote in LAUSD Board elections to allow for representation of the people most impacted by these elections."

Some support in Los Angeles for lowering the voting age for school board elections specifically.

Some places are trying this out. Here's a piece on Newark from last year: boltsmag.org/newark-teens...

The commission is set to take up a motion by its chair, Raymond Meza, who had previously taken a hands-off approach to sharing such private conversations, saying it was up to the City Council.

After 4 months of delay Karen's minions have *finally* allowed charter reforms re: LAPD to reach the agenda, but you can expect them to do everything they can to keep it from moving forward.

Some point to a tight timeline and crowded plate for the commission. Others say it's a political hot potato.

Is the Charter Reform Commission haunted? Is there anything we can do about it?

We'll find out at this Wednesday's meeting.

The LA Reporter this week is debuting The Doughnut Shop Interviews series in which we sit down with a major figure in local politics and regulars at a neighborhood doughnut shop.

The first chat is with Raymond Meza, chair a citizen panel helping to rewrite the LA city charter.

Mayor Karen Bass is asking LA's city council to pass an ordinance that would exempt Pacific Palisades transactions from ULA, the city's transfer tax.

Of note: "The letter follows a meeting with Rick Caruso, founder of Steadfast LA, who proposed ideas to help address this issue"

Even if you aren't attending these, please sign it.

You SHOULD, but they can be hard to attend. Making remote public available means you can zoom in and add your voice to critical changes like Ranked Choice Voting, how police are punished, and how we deal with corrupt politicians.

It's important
We *need* to get the commission’s support behind these changes at this Wednesday’s meeting.

They are breaking off into committees and don’t have another full commission meeting scheduled until November 19th.

Next week the Charter Reform Commission will be deliberating on potential reforms re: Budget, Personnel, & Periodic Charter Review.

They should also be considering changes that would require them to provide remote public comment at meetings.
