Stop LA City Attorney from dismantling popular neighborhood program
2
Hi All, I received this petition regarding the Neighborhood Prosecutor program. If you want to sign it and share it, please do. Sheri ALERT: Newly elected La City Attorney Hydee Feldstein Soto is eliminating the Neighborhood Prosecutor program! This move threatens public safety all over Los Angeles! Neighborhood Prosecutors serve as local problem solvers who interface directly with LAPD and crime victims. They are passionate advocates who combat the most destructive community crimes like drug sales, illegal dumping, graffiti, and more. By addressing such criminal activity before it mushrooms into more serious offenses, these vital public servants make the City of Los Angeles safer and improve quality of life. We must act now before it is too late. We demand LA City Attorney keep the Neighborhood Prosecutor program in place. Please sign our petition to help make Los Angeles a safe place to live and work. https://chng.it/2pwSSrk9bB

LA City Attorney
Hi All, If you haven¡¯t voted yet, there is one election that people don¡¯t research and that is for LA City Attorney. I have spoken to many officers, and they support Hydee Feldstein Soto. Check out this link: https://laist.com/news/politics/2022-election-california-general-los-angeles-city-attorney#gill This is for Faisal Gill. You can also click on Hydee Feldstein Soto and read her info. The Los Angeles City Attorney plays a leading role in shaping the future of our city by fighting to improve the quality of life in our neighborhoods, reducing gang activity, preventing gun violence, standing up for consumers and the elderly, protecting our environment and so much more. The City Attorney's office writes every municipal law, advises the Mayor, City Council and all city departments and commissions, defends the city in litigation, brings forth lawsuits on behalf of the people and prosecutes misdemeanor crimes such as domestic violence, drunk driving and vandalism. This office strives every day to make Los Angeles a better and safer place to live, work, raise a family and visit.. Some of you know about Neighborhood Prosecutors that are assigned to each division to help our officers with the quality of life issues, party houses, squatters, etc. Apparently, Faisal Gill, a CRIMINAL DEFENSE AND CIVIL RIGHTS ATTORNEY, has said he plans on stopping all programs for 90 days for a ¡°reset¡±. He views the city attorney as a policy office, with the power to make decisions like whether to prosecute protesters or get rid of cash bail in the misdemeanor system.

On the ballot.......VOTE NO on Measures ULA and SP ( we need the continued benefits of Prop.13!!!! )
In 2020, you helped defeat Prop 15 ¡ª the Split Roll property tax hike ¡ªdefending the property tax protections of Prop 13. Thank you for your support! Now, new threats to Prop 13 have emerged in L.A. and we are again calling on you for help. Measures ULA and SP are property tax increases in L.A. that have qualified for the November ballot. Together, these two measures create a $1.1 billion property tax increase ¡ª the largest tax increase in the city¡¯s history ¡ª that will drive up the cost of everything, making it more expensive to live or work in L.A. Make no mistake, ULA and SP will increase property taxes for L.A. renters, homeowners, and small businesses ¡ª dismantling decades of Prop 13 protections! How you can help today: Get the word out to vote no on Measures ULA and SP by sharing the tweet below on Twitter. Stop higher property taxes and protect Prop 13 in LA! I¡¯m voting NO on Measures ULA and SP in November and you should too. Learn about these LA property tax hikes here: https://votenoulaandsp.org/ -- Bonnie

Where the growth is
This is one of the subtextual reasons to stay in Southern California: Take a look at this link. More than anything I¡¯ve seen recently, this is another clue that the center of Los Angeles is really everything west of the 405 freeway and north of downtown Los Angeles. These are long term plans, but that¡¯s how to invest in real estate. We already know that Disney is expanding into Santa Clarita -- north, along this route. And NBC/Universal is expanding its empire around the ¡°Universal Studios mountain,¡± a destination for the commuters Now there¡¯s this, the next phase of the California ¡°high speed rail¡± project, which imports people from north of the San Fernando Valley, from places like Palmdale to Burbank. Projects like these don¡¯t move forward unless there are credible data and, of course, major government corruption. However, from the 100,000 foot view, it appears that civic forces are driving the population and business growth to area overdue for redevelopment. This will likely drive up property values, as more businesses revitalize Burbank, and broken down communities like San Fernando, Sylmar and other stops along the line. Democrats and liberals come and go, but money always does the talking. Over the next few years, you can bet that junkyards, auto repair/chop shops, and dozens of other mom & pops will be quietly bought up, replaced by shiny new warehouses, office buildings and shiny condominiums. That Los Angeles. That's how we play here. https://hsr.ca.gov/2022/09/07/news-release-california-high-speed-rail-releases-draft-environmental-document-for-palmdale-to-burbank-section/ -- Rob Frankel Chief Curmudgeon

Get these links around
https://www.usa.gov/register-to-vote If you know anyone who has not registered to vote, this is the link to click. https://huntthevote.org A hunters' link. From the site: Hunt The Vote - I Hunt I Vote. Our hunting lifestyle is under attack. A well organized, well-funded, anti-hunting cabal is pushing for outright bans on hunting. From Virginia to Wisconsin to Colorado and Arizona, these anti-hunting forces are uniting to kick us out of the woods and trample on our values of God, family, and country. 50% of Hunters do not vote. A church-goers site: https://ourchurchvotes.turbovote.org/ From the site: More than 25 million Christians chose not to vote in the last presidential election. We can do better. Because our faith votes. Whether we cast a ballot or not. A suggestion: Go to Youtube, and put 'Hunters' into the search bar. If Hunting videos come up, post the Hunters' link in the comment section. Do the same for 'Christianity' or a similar term, and post the OurChurchVotes link. There are millions of unregistered conservative potential voters. We must reach them.

The Registrar Completed Its Count. Our Next Steps.

View this email in your browser Rob, Today, the Registrar of Voters completed its count of the 715,833 signatures submitted to recall District Attorney George Gascon. 520,050 signatures were found to be valid and 195,783 were found to be invalid. Therefore, according to the Registrar, the petition has failed to meet the sufficiency requirements. While the initial results are very surprising and disappointing, the Recall Committee intends to exercise its full statutory and legal authority to review the rejected signatures and verification process that took place, and will ultimately seek to ensure no voter was disenfranchised. Nonetheless, according to the Registrar-Recorder, over half a million residents placed valid signatures on a petition to initiate the recall of Los Angeles District Attorney George Gascon. To deprive them of the opportunity to restore public safety in their own communities is heartbreaking. And to interpret this in any other way other than a wholesale rejection of Gascon¡¯s dangerous polices would be disingenuous, or naive at best. The over half a million signatures are in addition to 37 cities voting no confidence in the District Attorney, and over 98% of Gascon¡¯s own prosecutors supporting the recall. The removal of George Gascon from office has never been a matter of if, but when. The citizens of Los Angeles cannot afford another two years of Gascon unleashing havoc on their streets ¨C people¡¯s lives are at stake. ¨C The Recall DA George Gascon Campaign PAID FOR BY THE COMMITTEE TO SUPPORT THE RECALL OF DISTRICT ATTORNEY GEORGE GASCON Committee Major Funding from: Geoff Palmer Gerald J.
