Today is #TransDayOfVisibility. With the record number of attacks on trans rights across the country, it is important we stand in solidarity with the trans & nonbinary community. LOUDLY & PROUDLY. Today & always.

The urgency for rent control and a just cause law

The urgency for rent control and a just cause law in the city of Bell Gardens has existed for many years. As a community of “essential workers”, COVID-19 has left many families with little to no income to pay for their rent, mortgage, and other living expenses. 78% of Bell Gardens residents are renters. 62% live on low incomes. Without more protections, thousands of families are vulnerable to forced displacement and homelessness.

Stand in solidarity and support the fight for safe and affordable housing! If you are a resident of Bell Gardens sign this petition today in support of a RENT CONTROL AND JUST CAUSE law and tenant protections that protect us all: https://bit.ly/RentControl4BG

Los temas incluyen leyes justas estatales y federales de viviendas que se centran en la protección de las víctimas de acoso sexual y violencia doméstica; protecciones para inquilinos durante COVID-19 estatales y locales; y servicios del Centro de Derechos a la Vivienda.

We are devastated, angry, and saddened by yesterda

We are devastated, angry, and saddened by yesterday’s events in Atlanta. We stand with our AAPI community in denouncing and calling for an end to the overwhelming hate and violence directed at them across the country.

We must do better at taking care of each other and bringing an end to white supremacy’s chokehold. Our collective freedom and survival rests on our ability to put an end to white supremacy once and for all.

Haven’t heard of the Helms Amendment before? No

Haven’t heard of the Helms Amendment before?

No worries, here are the highlights (re: lowlights):

➡️Created by a white supremacist in the 1970s
➡️Rooted in racism and colonialism
➡️Deprives people around the world of receiving the health care they need
➡️Results in millions of people dying from unsafe abortions because they cannot access healthcare.

#ThisIsRJ #ReproJustice #RepealHelms

[ID: 1) bold white text on a solid, dark blue background that says, “If the US is serious about fighting white supremacy, we must: 1. Repeal Helms 2. Pass the Abortion is Health Care Everywhere Act #HelmsHurts” 2) same format as slide 1 with the text: “The Helms Amendment was introduced in direct response to Roe v. Wade to oppress and control the bodies of Black and brown women using the power of US funding. It’s time to end Helms.” 3) #RepealHelms in varying bold blue text on a white background.]
