On April 16, 2025, Compton City Council suspended fireworks sales for July 4th, citing safety and environmental concerns. The Citizens' Coalition is neutral regarding this decision, yet acknowledges its potential benefits to public health and safety.

Long Beach, Lynwood, and Compton officials have launched a joint plan to combat sex and human trafficking along Long Beach Blvd. The initiative aims to target high-risk areas, hold motel owners accountable, and support victims through survivor-centered services. Backed by the Citizens' Coalition for Change, the plan emphasizes regional cooperation to restore safety and dignity to affected neighborhoods.

Citizens Coalition for Change urges the City of Compton to strongly consider a city-wide ban on the sale and use of fireworks in Compton.
