If the Mayor & most of City Council DO NOT want to fight for transparency and accountability on LA28's finances, WE WILL. REMINDER: YOU ALL (LA taxpayers) are financially liable for UNLIMITED amounts if the LA Olympics goes over budget. www.latimes.com/california/s...

Never before in this City’s history has a private organization been financially backstopped by the City of Los Angeles taxpayers to carry out an endeavor of this size and scale. Our data request for financial information from LA28 AGREED to by the City and LA28 is due today.

Thank you to the few Councilmembers who fought for greater oversight and audit powers over LA28's finances (Councilmembers Eunisses Hernandez, Nithya Raman, Hugo Soto-Martinez, Ysabel Jurado, and Heather Hutt). Unfortunately, they didn't have enough votes at the time.
