Not a lot this week with World Cup finished and L.A. City Council on recess, but Metro and County Supervisors are still meeting.
- Tuesday 7/21 – The Re-Imagine Los Angeles Coalition is urging folks to support two items the Board of Supervisors will consider at its 9:30 a.m. meeting on Tuesday. One would shift the probation budget toward community-based solutions. Another would strengthen the L.A. County Ethics Commission. Details at Coalition talking points and at meeting agenda.
- Thursday 7/23 – The full Metro board will meet to discuss and vote on various items, including another $100 million for freeway widening, electric buses, and more. Meeting agenda and staff reports at Metro meeting page.
- Ongoing: The National Day Laborer Network continues to urge those that can to adopt a corner to help protect day laborers and vendors from ICE sweeps. See their webpage to register to adopt a corner or attend a workshop on how to help.
- Ongoing scheduled Metro service alerts:
- Metro G Line construction bus/bike detours are in effect through 2027. The Sepulveda Station area closure is in effect through December 2026.
