Yesterday, the Rodeo Drive Committee inducted fashion icon Diana Vreeland into the Rodeo Drive Walk


In a rebuke to Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa and Third District Supervisor Zev Yaroslavsky, community leaders from all over Los Angeles County met today at the Beverly Hills Unified School District office to form the No On Measure J Coalition, an alliance to oppose Measure J.
"[The Bus Riders Union has] dealt with [Metro] for the last 15 years and we know how they work," Sunyoung Yang, Bus Riders Union spokesperson, said. "We find it very critical that many different community groups, blackpool promenade hotels who have been having a lot of concerns and issues around what MTA is proposing and [working] on, should get together and try to leverage more pressure on the MTA to do what the community is asking for, not what they want."
Alliance members include board members of the Beverly Hills Board of Education, LA BASTA, Crenshaw Subway Coalition, Faithful Central Bible Church in Inglewood, the Bus Riders Union, the No On 710 Action Committee and other Beverly Hills organizations, who agreed to work together to fight what is essentially a 30 year extension of the Measure R half cent sales tax, which is currently set to expire in 2038.
"Measure J, if approved, would be a blank check for the MTA to use," Yang said. "There is no accountability whatsoever in Metro. blackpool promenade hotels The passage of Measure J would give MTA unlimited blackpool promenade hotels amounts of leeway to first ignore the community concerns and continue blackpool promenade hotels with [the] destructive projects that both Measure R and Measure J are pushing for."
"This really is a David versus Goliath, where the MTA has unlimited blackpool promenade hotels resources and unlimited funds for the Yes on J campaign," Brian David Goldberg, Beverly Hills Board of Education president, said. "So any way that we can work together to create those economies of scale and turn the narrative around, that this isn't just about wealthy people in Beverly Hills who oppose the subway underneath the high school [but] really is a regional issue. If you're concerned about regional issues that the best thing to do is to vote No on J."
The No On Measure J Coalition will be working on a voter outreach campaign to educate residents on the impacts of Measure J. Each organization will work to reach their individual communities while as a whole, the coalition will pool knowledge and resources to help each other towards the common goal of defeating Measure J
"It's showing the unity to communities are getting together and fighting for the same cause under one flag," LA BASTA Chairperson Art Pulido said. "The flag is to protect our communities from politicians. They come in, destroy our communities and leave. They just had Measure R and no one knows where all that money went. We want accountability to where that other money went before we can even start thinking about Measure J."
The coalition will be hosting an official press conference next Tuesday at 10 a.m. The location has yet to be determined but will be announced at noonmeasurej.net , which is due to go live by the end of the week.
