"Nithya has been actively practicing co-governance, working in tandem with tenants to pass transformative legislation, ike the tenant protections that, in the middle of the pandemic, actually kept people housed and prevented them from ending up on the streets," said Dorcia

ACCE Los Angeles leaders showed up in force on Tuesday to support CM Nithya Raman and oppose Council President Marqueece Harris-Dawson's decision to split up Housing & Homelessness Committee and remove Raman as chair. We believe this looks like political punishment for Raman running for mayor.

While we fight to keep our heads above water paying for rent, healthcare, groceries and gas, billionaires are floating off our backs. Tax them. Having your basic needs like housing, healthcare, and a living wage shouldn’t feel like swimming against the tide. #PeopleOverBillionaires #TaxTheRich

For decades, Los Angeles has been told that giving developers more incentives will eventually solve the housing crisis. Meanwhile, rents have climbed, homelessness has increased, and working families continue to be priced out.
Trickle Down
Housing 
DOESN'T WORK

The LA City Council is proposing a ballot measure that would give developers a 10 year ULA tax exemption, without requiring a single affordable home.

LA voters didn't pass Measure ULA to subsidize market-rate development.

LA City Council...
REJECT THE PROPOSED ULA BALLOT AMENDMENTS.

❌ You should not be asking: "How do I survive another price increase?" ✅ You should be asking: “Why are working people and taxpayers expected to absorb every crisis, while corporations continue making record profits?”

Alliance of Californians for Community Empowerment (ACCE) @acceaction.bsky.social · 16/06/2026
Inflation explains some price increases, not corporate price gouging. Companies often use moments of crisis (ex: wars, supply chain disruptions, economic uncertainty) to push prices even higher than their actual costs Working people and taxpayers end up paying the difference.

Corporate profits remain near historic highs in many industries. Oil companies post billions in profits during energy shocks. Corporate landlords continue raising rents. Utility corp. seek rate increases year after year. The people paying more are not the people benefiting!

And it's getting worse. Inflation just rose at its fastest pace in three years. As Trump escalates war in Iran, corporations pass the costs onto us. We pay more for gas. More for food. More for everyday necessities, while they protect profits. www.theguardian.com/...

No one should have to struggle to pay their utility bills while corporate executives take home millions. While 1 in 5 Californians are behind on their bills, PG&E, Sempra and Edison’s CEOs are paid multi-million dollar salaries & are among the ten highest paid utility CEOs in the country 1/2
