The status quo is unacceptable. California’s wildfire survivors deserve to come first. The home building community supports accountability and a clear path to recovery for those affected.
NEW: California firefighters back @CAGovernor Gavin Newsom’s plan to fix the broken wildfire compensation system. Under the plan: 👥 Survivors get paid FIRST ❌ NO bonuses for the utility executives responsible 🛑 Stop Wall St hedge funds from profiting off victims 💰 Utility shareholders fund 2 years of credits for electric bills 🏠 Homeowners get help hardening their homes

This reader is spot-on: the LA Times coverage of the gondola project has made it seem like a universally-despised, environmentally-catastrophic, greedy developer plot that will destroy LA. Could it be that Angelenos might actually *like* and *benefit from* an urban gondola?

California senators just voted 39-0 for Uber and California attorneys' deal aimed at aiding car crash victims, sending it to Newsom and avoiding a costly ballot fight. Sen. Tom Umberg managed to say the word "lien" at least nine times in two minutes during his floor speech.

A new statewide survey paints a concerning picture of retirement security in California, with most voters saying the state’s high cost of living and taxes are making it increasingly difficult to save for the future. fox40.com/news/california-co…

The ULA Coalition just released a study from BAE Economics Conclusion - ULA is economically benign because most LA projects already don’t work due to macro economic factors. Brilliant theory. A huge new r-e tax is totally fine because market rate housing is already fucked! 🤯

Ignore the NIMBYs. Build the Gondala.
The coalition of LA residents who oppose the Dodger Stadium gondola shut down the Metro board of directors meeting Thursday. They forced the meeting into recess and demanded that officials at minimum allow public discussion on the project. This is a developing story.

That’s the guy who forced the UCLA Mobility Lab into writing a report saying that somehow adding a transit alternative would not alleviate surrounding traffic. A study that was later discredited by its own authors, years ago now. Yet it is still being cited by project opponents to this day. And without any mention of the retraction by news media covering the gondola.

Big news. So pumped to welcome Zach to the Click Strategies team.
I’ll have more to say in the coming weeks about what these past 10 years with @MayorOfLA have meant to me but for now I have some ~personal news~ that I’ll be starting with the Click Strategies team at the end of this month!
