DESCRIPTION:\nFor far too long, our political leaders have failed to represent 
 Oakland’s true values. It is time for the Oakland Left to unite, recruit 
 our own candidates and build political power to achieve meaningful 
 change.\n\nAt our last meeting we announced the formation of a new 
 coalition with members including the Anti Police-Terror Project, the 
 Oakland Education Association, the Coalition for Police Accountability, the 
 Green Party, Socialist Alternative Bay Area, Community READY Corps, the 
 National Union of Healthcare Workers, the Community Democracy Project, 
 Oakland Tenants Union, Oakland Livable Wage Assembly and more. We also 
 discussed support for three ballot initiatives - a package on real rent 
 control with other tenant protections, the creation of a civilian police 
 commission with real authority to regulate and disicpline OPD, and a 
 workers rights bill that includes fair scheduling and a $20 minimum wage by 
 2020.\n\nOakland Alliance seeks to unite the progressive movement in 
 Oakland behind a slate of candidates who will challenge the institutional 
 power structure that has failed to represent the interests of the people 
 over the powerful. Come and connect with dozens of organizations interested 
 in building long-term political power and holding our elected officials 
 accountable to the needs of their constituents.\n
