    Always great to be out at First AME Church distributing boxes of food full of produce and meat to those in need. If a box of food helps take some stress off of a family during this crisis, we will be there to help.

    Calling the police on George Floyd about an alleged counterfeit $20 bill ended his life. If he had been met with unarmed, trained specialists for the nonviolent crime he was accused of, George Floyd would be turning 47 years old today. This plan will save lives.

    The LA City Council just voted to move forward our unarmed crisis response plan. The City will now: 1) Issue an RFP for nonprofit partners to implement our unarmed crisis response pilot 2) Create a new classification of City employees who will respond to nonviolent 911 calls.

    Today is in the City of Los Angeles. It’s a time to reflect on the original sin of our nation and how the consequences of it are still felt today. Our country must do better for our native communities.

    Great morning with providing free, no insurance-required COVID-19 tests to residents. We’ve got to continue to make sure our people are able to get tested so that we can stop the spread of this deadly virus.

    It is the responsibility of all of us to get people off the streets and into secure housing. It requires us to find our inner angels and provide these spaces for those to have a second chance.

    When I first proposed this location, I felt that if we as leaders were going to ask our residents to make space in their communities for our unhoused neighbors, I should lead by example. Haven is in the parking lot of my District Office where I spend 10-12 hours daily.
