We’ve seen it again and again – unlawful, warrantless immigration arrests are happening and it has to stop.

Last week, we showed up outside the federal courthouse to support our immigrant community and the organizations fighting on their behalf, including CHIRLA, UFW, NDLON, and ACLU SoCal. These advocates are speaking up as part of the Vasquez Perdomo v. Mullin case that is challenging the unconstitutional and racist arrests of our community members.

Today is the anniversary of the flag of the City of Los Angeles. 🎉 🏙️

Known as the “Fiesta Flag,” the official city flag was adopted on July 22, 1931, paying homage to the region’s agriculture and history.

We visited El Pueblo de Los Angeles to learn more about the symbolism behind the flag and how it tells the story of the many people and nations that were a part of the founding and continuing evolution of the city we know and love today.

Let’s use our voices everyday — to fight for immigrant rights, to call out injustices, to celebrate our culture, and in every election! 🙌🏽 🗣️

The Supreme Court has upheld the longstanding interpretation of birthright citizenship, reaffirming that all persons born or naturalized in the U.S. are citizens, even those born to parents without legal status.

This decision is a major win for immigrant families everywhere. Birthright citizenship continues to open doors for children of immigrants, allowing them to grow, lead, and shape the future of this country.

Community member Christine reflects on what Pride Month means to her — and how she’s seeing solidarity and resiliency all around her. 🌈 💖

We couldn’t agree more. At San Fernando Valley Pride this weekend, we were inspired by seeing elected officials, organizations, artists, and community members all coming together to uplift love and acceptance.

Ever wondered what your assemblymember’s favorite drag show spot is? 🏳️‍🌈 🍹

We asked two iconic Los Angeles LGBTQ+ leaders – Assemblymember Mark Gonzalez and Bamby from the TransLatin@ Coalition – what their Pride Month faves are, from the best anthem to their dream parade float.

Pride is about resistance and Pride is every day. 🌈 ✊🏽

This Pride Month and beyond, we’re grateful for the LGBTQ+ leaders in Los Angeles, like Assemblymember Mark Gonzalez and Bamby from The TransLatin@ Coalition, who are guiding us through difficult times and advocating for a brighter future.
