Here’s your daily reminder that the midterm elections are coming up (in 25 days)!
And here’s another reminder that immigrants WILL have a big impact on the elections—even if they aren’t old enough to vote! According to a new study [[link removed]] , immigrant youth are increasingly using social media to educate others about social and political topics (including with their family at the dinner table), hold politicians accountable, and provide their followers with opportunities to take action through political movements such as Fridays for Future and Black Lives Matter. We love to see it!

It has been a few days since audio was leaked [[link removed]] of three Los Angeles City Councilmembers making racist and other crude remarks last year, and the fallout is still continuing. And while former Los Angeles City Council President Nury Martinez and Los Angeles County Federation of Labor President Ron Herrera resigned, Councilmembers Kevin De León and Gil Cedillo have ignored their communities' calls to resign. Meanwhile, other Latino elected officials, among many others across the country, have spoken out [[link removed]] , condemning racism and colorism in the Latino community and recommitting themselves to collective liberation work. But the work can’t stop there.
We can and must change the face of leadership in Los Angeles and all across the U.S. by electing a new generation of leaders who will do away with the anti-Blackness, colonialism, anti-Indigenous colorism, and systemic white supremacy that has no place in our country or democracy today.
