Activity 2

Our Money, Our ValuesAcross the screens at Blessed Sacrament Catholic Church, the message was clear: Our Money, Our Values. LA Voice residents across the city are calling on public officials to stand with small businesses and families in foreclosure--and ask banks to re-invest in the communities that invest in them. In coalition with other grassroots organizations, LA Voice took an important first step towards holding banks accountable by rallying with 800 Angelenos for support of the Responsible Bank Initiative, an ordinance that would assign a community investment grading system for banks that do business with the City of Los Angeles.

Activity 3

Fair treatment for Vulnerable CommunitiesLA Voice celebrated the announcement by LAPD Chief Charlie Becks decision to ease the burden on immigrant families by revising the law enforced at checkpoints in Los Angeles. Under the new policy, families will be given the opportunity to avoid having their cars towed and allowed reasonable time to find someone else to drive their car home. The law only applies at sobriety checkpoints and only if the driver isnt drunk or otherwise wanted by the police. LA Voice leaders led this fight in the city and were proud to be interviewed at the press conference as officials announced the new policy.
