ADA SoCal Endorses George Gasćon for Los Angeles District Attorney Los Angeles City Attorney:
Vote for George Gasćon for Los Angeles City Attorney on November 5th, 2024. |
We have a unique opportunity to move Los Angeles in a dramatically more progressive direction, particularly with Erin Darling, Hugo Soto-Martinez and Danielle Sandoval. Erin is running to maintain the tradition of progressive representation that we expect from the Westside, taking the mantle from Bill Rosendahl and departing councilmember Mike Bonin. Hugo is running against an incumbent councilmember who has been in the pocket of developers as long as he’s been in office. Danielle’s opponent is a former lobbyist for the Police Protective League and the for-profit Charter Schools, who is being funded by fossil fuel companies and the landlords’ association. |

ADA SoCal Endorses Ysabel Jurado for L.A. City Council District 14 Ysabel Jurado is a tenants rights attorney, affordable housing activist, single mom, daughter of undocumented Filipino immigrants, lifelong Angeleno, and candidate to become the next Councilmember for District 14. Born and raised in Highland Park, she attended Pasadena City College and put herself through college at UCLA, where she completed her bachelor’s degree. After graduating, she went on to UCLA School of Law, where she graduated with a Juris Doctorate with specializations in Critical Race Studies and the David J. Epstein Program in Public Interest Law and Policy. She did it all as a single teen mom while raising her daughter, Stella. As a housing rights attorney and during her work at Bet Tzedek Legal Services, Ysabel fought to stop tenant evictions and stood side by side with community organizations and small businesses that were at risk of losing their leases. Her practice has focused in particular on building pathways to home-ownership for communities of color, the preservation of open space, and reparative justice. Ysabel is running for District 14 because she understands the immense powers the City Council holds in Los Angeles – and has watched local representatives betray her community time and again. Her platform focuses on expanding affordable housing, ending homelessness, supporting small businesses, tackling the climate crisis, and building a more just economy for all. Vote for Ysabel Jurado for City Council District 14 on November 5th, 2022. |
