BIG win today!

The SD city council's proposal to hand over the 3,000+ Smart streetlights (surveillance) to the San Diego PD was removed from consideration from this morning's PSLN committee meeting!

Thanks to YOUR pushback and efforts against this problematic proposal, we were able to achieve this. Of course, the fight isn't over yet, please stay tuned regarding future updates!

Today at 5 PM, The Chula Vista City Council will be considering a resolution in opposition to Prop 15. Please email councilmembers before the meeting to let them know you oppose the resolution and are in support of Prop 15! Please also submit an online public comment for the meeting. Click "oppose" and type in your comment.

Link in bio for public comment link!

Prop 15 will require that all commercial/industrial properties valued at $3M or more be reassessed at fair market value, and pay taxes on that basis. The proposition would create a split roll property tax system and spend the revenue increase on education and other public services.

Please email City Council and utilize our talking points below:

BREAKING 🎉 The House just passed the #NoBanAct

BREAKING 🎉
The House just passed the #NoBanAct, the first step to repealing the Trump administration’s cruel and discriminatory Muslim Ban!! Let’s keep the momentum going!!

👉Our statement: "We are thrilled that a majority of the House voted to overturn the Trump administration's cruel and discriminatory Muslim and African bans. We are so grateful to those who voted 'Yes.' Families have been torn apart for too long due to Trump's xenophobic and bigoted policies, and this is a crucial step toward justice for these families. Our work to repeal the bans is far from over, and we will continue to push to overturn unjust policies that target vulnerable and marginalized communities."

Repost from @jeanhuyootb

San Diego, Important vote TODAY on a budget item during SD City Council Mtg 11am -3pm.
Currently, the police's budget is over half a billion. Yes, you heard that right. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the mayor proposed a huge budget cut across the board, EXCEPT for the police, who will be getting a net increase of 27.2 millions. Are you tired of being over-policed? Are you tired of seeing all the shining toys, the tear gas, the rubber pellets that they threw at you yesterday? .

Well, it is your chance to show up & make a difference. There is an item is up for the vote today proposing to divert $21 million from the police funding to Emergency Rental Assitance Program, where many folks need the most help right now. Renters are the most vulnerable to become homeless during the COVID-19 pandemic, and as we are trying to address homelessness issue, let's also focus here.

Check out the info-graphic on how to show up! .

Though Ramadan may be an immensely gratifying, challenging experience, our real work begins as this blessed time passes us. It can be even more challenging to continue embodying the same spiritual dedication we felt throughout this month.
Join us for a special session of Muslim Youth Live as we reflect on the upcoming conclusion of Ramadan with Dr. Imad Bayoun (Muslim American Society). Together, we'll learn about not only taking advantage of its remaining days, but focusing on the concept of Istiqaama (steadfastness, consistency) in faith, and taking whatever good we acquired throughout this beloved month with us into our everyday lives after it ends.
