VICTORY! The Los Angeles City Attorney just announced the first of its kind lawsuit under the Tenant Anti-Harassment Ordinance! Tenants at units on Woodlawn Ave. and 43rd St. in south LA have been dealing with illegal harassment from their landlord in an effort to get them

to vacate their homes to get higher rents. This harassment included imposing new charges and fees, interruption of services, and discarding the tenants' personal belongings.

For decades, Los Angeles has been told that giving developers more incentives will eventually solve the housing crisis. Meanwhile, rents have climbed, homelessness has increased, and working families continue to be priced out.

Now we're being asked to believe that a 10-year ULA tax exemption, with no requirement to build a single affordable home, is the solution. We've tried trickle-down housing before. It didn't work then, and it won't work now.

Your landlord might be charging you too much. Use the free tool at tenant protections.org to find out. And go to acceaction.org/rente... for resources you can use to defend your rights and stay housed!

You got the raise. You picked up the extra shift. You stopped eating out as much. You cut back where you could. And somehow, you still have less money left over at the end of the month. For a lot of us, there's no cushion left.
