Yesterday, SEIU 2015 members in LA County attended a press conference hosted by the @KeepLAHoused alongside @CalOrganize and community members standing together in solidarity for rent equity and to push back against Ice raids, and federal cuts. Our very own member leader Patricia Santana spoke on housing justice rights, and the event showed LA City Hall what people power looks like!

Last night, more than 100 Los Angeles renters from Council Districts 8 and 10 attended a town hall meeting hosted by the @KeepLAHoused Coalition.

We’re back at City Hall with the @KeepLAHoused coalition, as well as a number of “Housing Providers” who seem to be heavily impacted by the prospect of not making quite as much money off the backs of poor and working Angelenos as they’re already making.

Housing scammers and looters at it again at the Housing & Homelessness Committee mtg @LACityCouncil!
It’s a shame that a month later since the catastrophic fires, and we still don’t have protections to keep the most vulnerable housed and protected!

LA landlords = scammers and looters, back at it again!
Maybe it’s time to give up your properties to tenants and support SOCIAL HOUSING! #ProtectTenants

These are NOT “housing providers,” these HOUSING SCAMMERS! Landlords are the biggest looters profiting and living off WORKING CLASS TENANTS ALREADY RENT BURNED IN LA!
.@LACityCouncil update the severely OUTDATED LA rent stabilization ordinance (LARSO) formula & STOP EVICTIONS!

A coalition of groups supporting tenants are rallying at LA City Hall today, ahead of a vote on an evictions moratorium and rent freeze, aimed at protecting people from an intensified housing market after the wildfires.

The main thing that would help the whole community of #Altadena and #Pasadena right now, which the City Council could address quickly, is a temporary FREEZE on EVICTIONS AND RENT INCREASES

…agitating for months to gut the city’s relocation assistance regulations. So you can understand our skepticism when they claim they’re just doing a “good deed,” as claimed by Gibbons in this article.

The primarily leader of this effort is Simon Gibbons, A) a plaintiff in a law suit brought by the Calif Apartment Association against the City of Pasadena to overturn tenant protections, (currently on appeal) and B) leading a new PAC (Pasadena Housing Providers) that has been…

Ostensibly this was to allow them to offer short term rentals without strings attached. Current regulations provide tenant protections after 30 days, as they should, and no-fault evictions necessitate relocation funds be given to the displaced tenant.

On Jan 11—less than 4 days after the Eaton Fire started—the Pasadena Housing Providers offered to "help" fire victims by exempting themselves from rent control and eviction protections (including relocation assistance).

Landlords are attempting to roll back tenant protections and call it a "good deed."

New rent hikes go into effect in Feb., so we need City Council to ACT NOW! KLAH is demanding an updated formula to LARSO, including a 3% rent cap, no floor and an end to "rent banking" to make LARSO less favorable to landlords, more fair to tenants and improve housing stability.
Keep LA Housed retweeted
Rent is out of control LA! Los Angeles ACCE members and @KeepLAHoused partners rallied outside City Council President Marqueece Harris-Dawson's @mhdcd8 office today and delivered a letter demanding his support for much needed reforms to LA's Rent Stabilization Ordinance (LARSO).
Keep LA Housed retweeted
.@mhdcd8 @LACityCouncil LA must take action to PAUSE ALL RENT INCREASES starting in February while we have PERMANENT lower rents!
Council President Marqueece, meet with your constituents struggling to stay housed

Yesterday, we celebrated a major victory as Council unanimously voted to adopt a stronger version of the Tenant Anti-Harassment Ordinance, advancing critical renter protections!

Update: The LA City Council today backed closing the renovictions loophole --- and putting a stop-gap measure in place, so people like the Mohawk residents aren't facing evictions in the meantime. They also got that urgency clause. 11-0 vote. – at Los Angeles, CA
