Specifically, I am referring to the situation at El Centro Cultural de Mexico. The council <br />is threatening legal action over a matter that they can entirely assist with. The city has access to federal funding, <br />public lands, Project Roomkey, and other resources, so why expend energy with a litigation case when there are <br />needs the city can provide for. I respectfully ask the City Council to abstain from pursuing legal action against <br />el Centro Cultural for defending our unhoused neighbors. This is an enormous opportunity to change and <br />positively affect the houselessness crisis and I ask the City to treat it as such, not as a legal conflict. Countless <br />community groups and volunteers are taking on this unpaid labor to fulfill needs that have long been neglected <br />by corrupt and ineffective elected officials. <br /> <br />Valeria Esqueda <br />1 <br />
