The organizing frame:
unions, chambers, banks, museums.

Labor is invited to explore contracts, implications, history, and innovation of union work and employment contracts inside the Citizens Museums of Los Angeles.

Business is invited into the same rooms — to see how contracts shape enterprise, and how contracts can be used to stimulate and increase business, not restrict it.

Unions are invited to explore, draft, and prosecute a proposal for a City of Los Angeles Department of Labor — a permanent civic counterpart to the Economic and Workforce Development Department and the County's Economic Opportunity office.

Audits — done by a Common Laborers' Union and allied trades, in partnership with Chambers of Commerce — take the largest companies in Los Angeles / Los Angeles County as their subject. Those companies are invited into the audit.

Audited firms are reconfigured under labor-first tenets and stipulations. The newly-formed entity is marketed to a union-based commission for patronage and funding, and can be re-integrated into the parent company as its Labor Innovation Department — a niche, marketable, labor-inclusive competitive posture.

Local banks are invited to extend capital to new firms formed through the initiative — on the policy position that partnership with local Chambers of Commerce, unions, and large employers produces measurable impact on the Los Angeles economy.

Large companies may co-fund as a component of their Labor Innovation Department, alongside the Small Business Administration and local development finance.

• Headline A

  Los Angeles — Labor Inclusive.

• Headline B

  Labor Innovation Department(s).

Recent space-industry contracts have reached upward of ten million dollars. We can do better ourselves — and we do not pass on partnership. Allied cities, near and abroad, are the second axis of the initiative: workforce and training exchange, cross-border investment, and citizen-centered corporate policy.
