Compassion & Justice Call to Action
January 2021 Call to Action: PICO California
|
Together, we demand CA’s elected leaders ban evictions through 2021 by passing AB 15 now, and act boldly to forgive rent & protect families from long-term debt by supporting AB 16.
Will you join faith leaders across CA in calling our legislators TODAY?
While millions of Californians have lost income or jobs due to COVID, our state politicians must decide who they stand with: landed, corporate interests, or our communities struggling to get by and pay rent & mortgages.
We choose to respond to this crisis by casting a moral vision in 2021: a CA where all of us, no matter our race or what’s in our wallets, have what we need to survive, thrive, and belong.

Juntos, exigimos que los líderes electos de California prohíban los desalojos hasta el final del 2021 aprobando AB 15 hoy,y que actúen de manera audaz para perdonar las rentas y proteger a las familias de las deudas a largo plazo por medio de su apoyo al AB 16.
¿Se unirá a los líderes de fe a través de California y llamará a nuestros legisladores HOY?
Mientras millones de californianos han perdido ingresos o empleos debido a COVID, nuestros políticos estatales deben decidir a quiénes apoyan: intereses corporativos de los terratenientes, o nuestras comunidades que están luchando para salir adelante y pagar las rentas y las hipotecas.
Elegimos responder a esta crisis lanzando una nueva visión moral en el 2021: un estado de California donde cada uno de nosotros, independientemente de nuestra raza o lo que tenemos en las billeteras, tengamos lo que necesitamos para sobrevivir, prosperar, y pertenecer. |
As people of faith and values, we believe all of our families deserve to have safe, affordable housing and stay in our homes. More than ever, our collective well-being depends on it. 
Como personas de fe y valores, nosotros creemos que todas nuestras familias merecen tener viviendas seguras y asequibles y mantenernos en nuestras casas. Más que nunca, nuestro bienestar colectivo depende de ello.
