VOTE NO on Measure G

Summary:
Measure G proposes expanding the LA County Board of Supervisors from five to nine seats, each representing a smaller portion of the county’s population. It also seeks to create an elected County Executive Officer, who is currently appointed by the Board, and establish an independent Ethics Commission and a nonpartisan Legislative Analyst to review policies. The goal is to enhance representation, accountability, and transparency.

Why We Oppose Measure G:
Thrive LA PAC opposes Measure G because it feels rushed and lacks the necessary research to fully understand its impacts. Expanding the Board of Supervisors may lead to fragmented decision-making and inefficiency, without resolving the underlying governance challenges. Additionally, creating an elected County Executive could shift focus to political maneuvering rather than practical problem-solving.

Instead of expanding bureaucracy, we support streamlining current processes and improving resource allocation to achieve accountability and transparency without adding more layers of government. We encourage voters to demand data-driven solutions before making such significant changes.
