In Los Angeles, city workers and community allies from the Fix LA Coalition have been mobilizing to call on the Mayor to reverse cuts to vital city services that have left piles of garbage, unfilled potholes, and sewage overflows in the streets and compromised the health and safety of LA residents.

The Fix LA Coalition has questioned why public officials siphon nearly $300 million to Wall Street each year but refuse to adequately maintain the City. At the same, United Teachers of Los Angeles are boycotting faculty meetings and rallying to secure “Schools That LA Students Deserve” with lower class sizes, early childhood education funding, restorative justice, and fair pay for teachers.
