Canvas to Flip California Congressional District 22
Canvas to Flip California Congressional District 22
Join Northeast Los Angeles Alliance for Democracy and Indivisible Altadena-Pasadena in a caravan that matters on Saturday, September 19, to Bakersfield to canvas for progressive Democrat Randy Villegas in his bid to unseat Republican David Valadao from Congress.
We’ll get up early to go to Bakersfield to help flip California Congressional District 22, one of the competitive districts in the mid-term elections that could determine if the Democrats gain control of the House. The Cook Political Report ranks the race as a toss-up, so help Villegas win by signing up to canvas here.

Artificial Intelligence poses a major threat to human civilization. It is taking away jobs and being used for surveillance/incarceration, it is destroying the environment with polluting data centers. It is mixing fact with disinformation and taking away foundational skills needed for human critical thinking. Even some Big Tech leaders have admitted that AI could result in catastrophic consequences.
What Is AI? Why Resist It? A Four-Part Webinar Series
Listen to the recordings from Session I: AI and Labor Session II: AI and the Environment,
Session IV: AI and Surveillance and Incarceration: coming soon on our NELA Alliance Youtube Channel
Northeast Los Angeles Alliance for Democracy invites you to a four-part webinar series to address these concerns and offer ideas for resistance and action.
Powerful LA Vigil to Demand Justice for Lorenzo. Justice for Johan. Justice for All. ABOLISH ICE
On July 25, in downtown Los Angeles, a coalition of over 50 organizations and faith leaders gathered for a funeral procession to honor the lives of those murdered by ICE. This “Justice for All” action was initiated by the National Disappeared in America Coalition, with which we at NELA Alliance partner.
Over 70 coffins moved through the city—each one representing a life, a family, and a future taken too soon.
We are speaking out against ICE’s brutality and the elected officials who enable it. Thanks to the many hands and hearts it took to make over these coffins in a week, and paired with the ‘Killed by ICE’ placards as an undeniable visual of what is being done to our people.
