Boyle Heights Issues Forum
CALO YouthBuild's 2015 Issues Forum is an opportunity for youth to share their knowledge and insight with policy makers and the community at large. Young researchers and organizers will be presenting on issues related to gentrification, police brutality and environmental justice. In addition to framing the issues, these youth will be offering policy suggestions to our elected representatives and other guests. This is what democracy looks like. Please come out and support our youth as they shed light on some of the most important issues facing our community and join them as we envision a future full of dignity, health, and justice.

Rail User’s Network Brings Annual National Conference to L.A.
I first became aware of the Rail Users' Network (RUN) some years ago when they held their Board meeting in Los Angeles and invited local transit activists to attend and observe. While I was already a member of several rail advocacy groups including National Association of Rail Passengers and RailPAC, I found appealing RUN's broad scope, dealing with passenger rail issues both national and local, and appreciated its strong customer focus. After joining I eventually also began contributing articles to the quarterly newsletter and more recently was elected to the Board.
