City Attorney Hydee Feldstein Soto's lack of support for the SAG-AFTRALA Strike reveals not only a glaring disconnect from labor rights but also a disconcerting inexperience in understanding the city's law and lifeblood: the film industry. latimes.com/california/story…

We need and deserve leaders who stand WITH unions, not blatantly against them.

City Attorney Feldstein Soto's 'best choice' for Skid Row Housing Trust receiver? Her campaign donor Mark Adams, despite his shady history of mismanagement. This is cronyism cloaked as competency. LA deserves better than this kind of blatant corruption. latimes.com/homeless-housing…

Months before City Atty. Hydee Feldstein Soto recommended Mark Adams for the equivalent of an open-ended, no-bid contract to oversee 1,500 Skid Row tenants, Adams hosted a fundraiser for her campaign.

Hydee Feldstein Soto is risking our democracy by threatening to dismantle the CA Public Records Act. Her proposal is an assault on transparency, trading our rights for the illusion of safety. This is what we get for electing an inexperienced City Atty. latimes.com/california/story…
After police photo release, L.A. city attorney tries to weaken public records law

After police photo release, L.A. city attorney tries to weaken public records law

It's the latest volley in an ongoing tussle between city officials and community activists who have used the public records law to obtain information about police.

In her bid to provide 'protection', she's creating a smokescreen for government officials to dodge accountability. It's simply unacceptable.

There is absolutely no doubt that KDL committed assault. If there is any Justice he will be charged.

When I became a civil rights attorney 15 years ago, I wanted to fight back against the systems that enable discrimination & abuse. As City Attorney, that goal will remain the same. I will fight every single day to build systems that uplift everyone in our city. Now let's VOTE!

This is why who your elected official is matters. It’s why @KarenBassLA is the only right choice for the next mayor. Why @GillForLA should be the next city attorney to stand up for tenants and enforce the city’s underused and unenforced Tenant Anti-Harassment Ordinance.
