Statement below is by Kari Carlin Aist; feel free to use it as a template or draft your own statement:

Ventura City Council—
You have heard from thousands of concerned community members via petition, emails, and other online communications, in social media posts, and from the people in person that you, our elected representatives in this city, have moral, legal, and personal obligations to remove the Serra statue from its prominent position in front of City Hall. The action you must take is clear: remove the statue!

We are NOT a Catholic city, the statue is NOT a historical landmark, and Serra the genocidal colonizer is NOT worthy of commemoration. Now that we as a community know better we must do better to remove this stain which tarnishes our fine city.

If you do not remove it forthwith, you show that you are representing privileged religious interests, that you do not care about all your citizens as a whole, and that your public statements are not to be trusted.

Please do right, make a stand on the side of justice, and by your actions show that you support social justice.
