L.A. KEEP UP THE MOMENTUM, PEOPLE POWER WORKS!!! We’re turning up the pressure on LA City Council to TAKE IMMEDIATE ACTION, stand in solidarity with Standing Rock and the people of Los Angeles, and Divest LA! We want the City to move $8 billion of our public funds out of Wells Fargo and reinvest it into ethical financial institutions!

After weeks of public pressure, the Revolution LA team and Divest LA supporters successfully influenced the introduction of the divestment motion. Now we need your help for the critical next step! Pack the General Council meeting to demand LA City Council schedule the motion on the agenda to be voted on THIS WEEK!

This co-occupation is a peaceful demonstration. We encourage civic engagement, and open dialogue between elected officials and citizens in a shared public space.

We are fighting for water. We are fighting for indigenous rights. We are fighting for ALL people who have been affected by Wells Fargo’s corrupt and unethical banking practices. We stand united to say NO MORE. We want a future that is fair and just. We demand a financial system that works for the benefit of our communities, our earth, and the common good.

STAND WITH THE PEOPLE, PROTECT THE EARTH, DIVEST LA NOW!!!
