 the power of organizations with different goals coming together as one to 
 support each other and build collective strength. We have anchored our 2016 
 work in three demands, all captured in ballot initiatives proposed by 
 community-led grassroots organizations.\n\n- Strengthen rent control and 
 other tenant protections to stabilize rent prices and stop displacement of 
 Black, Brown and poor people from the community they helped to build; as 
 proposed by the Oakland Tenants Union and Citywide Network\n- Create a 
 police commission with the authority to fire the police chief and conduct 
 independent investigations of incidents of police violence; as proposed by 
 the Coalition for Police Accountability\n- Establish a $20 minimum wage by 
 2020 and fair scheduling regulations, and mandate enforcement for both; as 
 proposed by the Oakland Livable Wage Assembly\n
