Faizah Malik
For years Faizah Malik has defended renters and affordable housing as Managing Attorney for Housing Justice at Public Counsel. She will champion safe streets, bike lanes, bus lanes, and protecting at risk road users. She understands how vital it is to build more housing, especially on the job-rich-housing-poor westside.

Kenenth Mejia
Kenneth Mejia has been a tireless watchdog since being elected in 2022. His team has released public dashboards and audits looking at a wide range of topics like capital projects, public bathrooms, and the city’s climate readiness. The controller’s office was the first to forecast a budget deficit, which the Mayor’s office dismissed before trying to cut thousands of City jobs. Learn more here.

Marissa Roy
City Attorney is one of the most quietly powerful roles in City government. The current attorney has used taxpayer dollars to fight voter mandated HLA safe street projects, state housing laws like SB79, and affordable housing projects like Venice Dell. Marissa Roy would be an antidote, using her years of experience attorney for the County and State to fight for all Angelenos, not just NIMBYs. Her questionnaire answers show a clear commitment to delivering fiscal responsibility, fixing infrastructure instead of paying out injury settlements, and using the City’s legal powers to force Metro to follow HLA.

Sara Hernandez
Sara Hernandez shows a strong commitment to building out a comprehensive network of high quality transit, safe street infrastructure, and much needed housing in one of the densest districts in California that includes DTLA, Boyle Heights, and Ktown. With a background in environmental and housing law we think she has the experience to guide critical legislation from Sacramento and support the heart of LA. Learn more here.

Hugo Soto Martinez
