Healthy LA Coalition

We need an LA County budget that prioritizes a strong recovery. On 06/27 tell @LACountyBOS to approve $10M to fund a codified right to counsel for low-income tenants in Unincorporated LA County who face eviction & expand funding for CLTs.

Tomorrow, the County BOS votes on a motion re: phasing out COVID-19 tenant protections earlier than planned. It's time to get LOUD! 🗣️🗣️🗣️ Email the BOS at bit.ly/klahemail and tell them to we won't accept a phase-out without permanent protections! #KeepLAHoused

NY extended eviction protections to Jan. 15th! CA has more renters in debt & facing eviction than anywhere in U.S. @CAgovernor @GavinNewsom @Rendon63rd @toniatkins, stop catering to @caanet. EXTEND EVICTION PROTECTIONS #EndEvictions #KeepTenantsHoused! nytimes.com/2021/09/01/nyr…

"Alvarado complained that she had no realistic option to buy a legal hot dog cart that would be small enough to push around, but 'I’m going to keep going because I have rent to pay,'” The fights for economic justice and housing justice are always intertwined.

As communities begin to recover from the systemic problems brought to light by the pandemic, the @LACountyBOS 21'-22' budget still fails to fully address the ongoing struggle to achieve racial justice in LA county #HealthyLA #HousingIsTheCure #HousingIsHealth #HousingIsJustice

Let's go! #HealthyLA

@LACountyBOS Many small business owners are at risk of commercial evictions, permanent closure, and generational debt accumulation. Save our small businesses and provide commercial rent relief! Yes on Item 32!

Next Tuesday, @LACountyBOS will vote on extending eviction protections & we need 2 mobilize 2 ensure this passes w/out weakened protections. Landlords are mobilizing 4 exemptions that could result in 1000's of evictions. Email your rep and say NO HOMEOWNER MOVE-IN EXEMPTION!

Thank You @HildaSolis for championing the groundwork to #SeizeTheDebt & ensure our public $ support tenants & small landlords most in need. 1000s are living w/so much uncertainty & today’s motion gives them a little hope for a #DebtFreeRecovery to #KeepLAHoused

Exciting News! #KeepLAHoused

#Covid19 amplified systemic racism, forcing Black & brown, low-income renters most at risk of eviction to make tough choices on bills to pay. Meanwhile corporate landlords lined their pockets. Let's be clear:A #DebtFreeRecovery is #RacialJustice #KeepLAHoused @kdeleon @HildaSolis

This crisis has forced hardworking families to choose between keeping a roof over their heads or putting food on the table. That means for some families, rent debt looks like collateral consumer debt--don’t they deserve relief too? We need a #DebtFreeRecovery to #KeepLAHoused

Today is officially #RentersDay in LA, yet many tenants are still facing eviction because they cannot access rental assistance. To #KeepLAHoused we need our city and county governments to implement a #DebtFreeRecovery

Nearly 6 million US renters are behind on rent - and 63% are people of color. Eliminating rent debt is a must for an equitable recovery that puts people first. Check out our new Rent Debt Dashboard here: bit.ly/NEA-rent-debt #CancelRent

Thank you to @KtownforAll @NoSweepsLA @PplsCityCouncil @thefutureleft @StreetWatchLA @GroundGameLA and others who are on the ground doing the work to truly keep people safe & housed. end/

This does not make people feel safe. @LACityCouncil @MayorOfLA and @MitchOFarrell chose to put people in harms' way, knowing how LAPD treats advocates, activists, and the unhoused. 7/

The @HealthyLA_Coa condemns the City of Los Angeles for the militarized police eviction of unhoused residents at Echo Park Lake. We stand with our unhoused neighbors and community members. We are appalled that the city pursues such harmful & violent behavior towards residents. 1/
