Our June member drive is live: protect this resource!
Right now, we need your help during our short June member drive to keep the local news you read here every day going. This has been a challenging year, but with your help, we can get one step closer to closing our budget gap. Today, put a dollar value on the trustworthy reporting you rely on all year long. We can't hold those in power accountable and uplift voices from the community without your partnership.

The 5th Annual Alt Car Expo is in its second and final day of its two-day run in Santa Monica. Showcasing "one of the most extensive presentations of Alternative technology vehicles and transportation, infrastructure, renewable energies, energy efficiency and urban planning found worldwide," the event is free and open to the public. LAist Featured Photos contributor Alex de Cordoba headed to the hands-on event yesterday and shared a few photos of some of the cars that are on display. The event is open until 5 p.m. today, if you're in the area and are alt-car curious.
