At Streets For All we believe the fastest path to safe and complete streets is electing people that support real change. Our endorsement decisions are based on both a candidate’s history of progressive action and a thoughtful response to our questionnaire.
We have endorsed the following candidates for the 2024 primaries:
Ballot Measure
Healthy Streets LA (HLA)
We’re endorsing Measure HLA - and we’re not the only ones. This ballot measure has been endorsed by the LAUSD, LA Times, the Los Angeles Democratic Party, and more. Measure HLA will build 2,500 miles of safer and more efficient streets across every part of Los Angeles, without raising taxes. At a time when traffic fatalities are at a record high, Measure HLA makes sure that the city finishes its own plan for thousands of miles of safer streets in LA.

We strongly support her work on transportation and environmental issues, and want her to be able to continue her work in a second term.
