	"description": "I just signed the #LAFWD petition urging LA&#x27;s CityCouncil to Legalize Street Vending the Right Way! Can you sign too? LA is the only major city where street vending is outlawed. In our current political climate, immigrant entrepreneurs are in danger and may have their livelihood threatened just for making their living by selling things that people not only want, but that are integral to the cultural fabric of Los Angeles. For more than five years, the Los Angeles Street Vendor Coalition (LASVC) has worked to decriminalize vending and create a fair, smart permitting process for vendors. As a result of these efforts and our dire, national political climate, the LA City Council is now pursuing legalization. Unfortunately, the Council is considering a policy that will further isolate street vendors, perpetuate conflicts between brick-and-mortar shops and vendors, and give Councilmembers unilateral power to ban vending in their entire district, according to the LA Times. The City Council ought to follow the recommendations of the LA Street Vending Coalition and implement a policy that will work better and more fairly than what&#x27;s currently proposed.",
