Today’s newsletter is from a candidate we are thrilled to endorse: Jillian Burgos.
Hello! My name is Jillian Burgos and I am a proud Afro-Latina, life-long renter, small business owner, and essential healthcare worker. Living in Los Angeles shouldn’t be so hard. As we all know, these days, many of us cannot afford to just have one job. And that’s why I’m running for Los Angeles City Council District 2. It shouldn’t be so difficult to find an affordable apartment or a well-paying job; nor should the thought of home ownership feel like a pipe dream.
For too many people in our city, the system is broken. Too many people are one illness or car accident away from losing their job or being evicted. We deserve better. We shouldn’t be stuck in survival mode, we deserve to thrive. We need to tear down the barriers that hold people back. This is why I’m so excited by the work of Project ID Action Fund. The obstacles to getting an ID are just one more hardship hindering people from success. We need new leaders with the vision to end these systemic failures and the political will to fight the difficult fights ahead of us.
I have already been fighting for change in our city as an activist and a neighborhood council member. I created a Tenant Rights Workshop for our neighbors, helped pass several grants to feed and provide wraparound services for many of our unhoused community, and brought mental health services and mentorship to schoolchildren with PESA. I marched with our union members when they went on strike. I advocated at City Hall and won $16 million to help reimagine our public safety system and create a new unarmed crisis response program. 
But we’re not stopping there. 
When I’m in office, I will strive every single day to make our city greener and safer, and build a better, more affordable future for all Angelenos. But we can’t win this fight alone, I need your support. Together, we can create a new vision of Los Angeles where no one is left behind and where we can truly thrive.
From the Valley with Love,
Jillian
