Wage theft costs Angelenos $1.4 BILLION every year, making LA the wage theft capital of the US.

By not enforcing wage theft laws, we are enabling corporations in our city to steal billions from our residents.

Today, we introduced a motion with Councilmember Tim McOsker to change that. (🧵)

We uncovered a federal effort that disproportionately prosecuted migrants from Muslim countries at the border.

The migrants, like Afghan journalists/activists, were jailed for months.

DOJ stopped after our inquiry.

“Why is it just us in detention?”

Instead of teaching less math in junior high, Dallas made advanced math classes opt-out.

Guess what happened? A bunch more Black and Hispanic students took advanced math, and grades and test scores in the classes didn't fall.

SURPRISE! KIDS CAN LEARN!
