Update: as of September 2022 proceeds from Ruben Ochoa’s fundraising print, "¡Tintín...Tintín...Paletas...Paletas!,” will go 100% towards the funding of street vendors’ travel to Sacramento to represent, advocate, and provide testimonials to help pass this crucial Senate Bill 972 on the assembly floor. The passing of this bill could make a significant difference to the street vending community. We thank you for your support of this artwork and the vending community.
"SB 972 aims to make common-sense changes to the California Retail Food Code (CRFC), like making permitting procedures, cart design and equipment standards, and commissary space more accessible for sidewalk food vendors..." This bill is co-designed with and led by street vendors.
Take action now and email your state assembly member today to voice your support for SB 972 – a bill that would modernize the state’s food code, protect street vending, and bolster the hard working vendors that contribute to the culture and vitality of our state.

Your purchase of Ruben Ochoa's LACMA x Snapchat fundraising print directly supports the initiative of Inclusive Action's emergency Los Angeles Street Vendor Campaign. The funds from each individual print will translate directly to a $400 cash card for street vendors and their families, many of whom have not been eligible to receive direct pandemic relief funding from the government.
