Today, I introduced a Resolution of No Confidence in Chancellor Block to UCLA's academic senate. It was blocked by filibuster, but we're going to try again next week. We're not done fighting.
Here's the full text of what I would have said if I hadn't been cut-off

After weeks of turmoil, @UCLA chancellor faces growing faculty criticism, no-confidence vote. Police chief, administrative vice chancellor also under scrutiny for security lapses leading to mob attack on pro-Palestinian encampment. w/@ashleyahn88 latimes.com/california/story…

Today UCLA faculty rallied in support of the student protests underway here & elsewhere with the message that Palestinian liberation lies at the heart of all social justice struggles. And that speaking on the matter is a fundamental right. My darling dog agrees!

Amaza Lee Meredith (1895-1984) was one of the nation's first black female architects. Her home, Azurest South, represents one of the earliest iterations of architectural modernism. Check out a biography of this notable architect 👉🏻 bit.ly/3wtx9Nr #WomensHistoryMonth

Saudi Arabia has so much money, it’s willing to try everything. Couple that with the fact architects have so little money, they’re willing to do anything, and you have a recipe for The Line. By @danacuff in @dezeen dezeen.com/2023/09/18/the-li…

This week, historians Alice T. Friedman, Despina Stratigakos, & PLATFORM’s Matthew Gordon Lasner react to the @barbiethemovie film and reflect on the real-life houses that inspired it, why Ken could never be an architect, and Barbie’s right to the city. platformspace.net/home/histo…

Four UC campuses are in the top 25, all nine in the top 100 in a new @Forbes ranking of schools that enroll students from across the socioeconomic spectrum who go on to earn high salaries and become leaders in their fields, without huge student debt.

New housing permits issued by city so far this year:
San Jose: 1,276
Santa Clara: 669
Fremont: 461
Oakland: 406
Milpitas: 371
Morgan Hill: 201
Sunnyvale: 196
San Francisco: 179
Atrocious, embarrassing start for San Francisco's 8 year commitment to build 80,000 new units.
More state intervention will be needed if we are going to confront this housing crisis--I have 8 bills I'm authoring or coauthoring that will help--we need to act urgently to control rents, reduce the housing cost burden, and get people off the streets into housing.
