This story is about LATU member Wendy Lopez, who spoke at our rally to demand that @LACountyBOS enact a rent freeze and eviction moratorium.
So far @LindseyPHorvath and the other supervisors have refused to do anything to protect tenants like Wendy.
STOP THE EVICTIONS, FREEZE THE RENT, SEIZE VACANT APARTMENTS TO HOUSE ALL ANGELENOS!
@LindseyPHorvath and @LACountyBOS, there are already nearly *150 evictions each day* in LA County.
Disasters like the fires can DOUBLE the number of evictions! We need ACTION!

TDI Properties is refusing to do pest control, repair broken windows, or replace cabinets chewed by mice.
This "intentional neglect" is a tactic landlords use to pressure rent-stabilized tenants out so that they can re-rent at market rate.

Yesterday members of our KTown Local protested outside the house of Danny Levin, COO of TDI Properties, which has ignored tenants' demands for repairs to be made. You can contact them here:

SPOTTED: Michael Kadisha of K3 Holdings — slumlord displacing rent-controlled tenants all across LA — supporting genocide at the zionist counter-protest at UCLA.
This & many other hard-hitting pieces of journalism brought to you by the PR agency that K3 hired to write puff pieces -- so that the stories about their illegal activity and our organizing against them are buried in search results
SAVE THE DATE, SUNDAY JUNE 23 📅 K3 COMMUNITY ART FAIR!
We're reigniting the people for the climax of our multi-year K3 fight, and for our members on rent strike demanding what thousands of other displaced RSO tenants were denied of: the return of their original leases.

The H Hotel in Koreatown is planning expansion and seeks to demolish apartments on Mariposa Street and evict several families in the process. All of the families have lived on Mariposa for more than 20 years!

Another arm of the same Beverly Hills family is kicking more poor & working-class Latino tenants out of Koreatown.
If buyouts are, as landlords say, "totally voluntary," why would people accept amounts so small that they can't afford to remain in Los Angeles?
A tenant facing cash for keys harassment just emailed us and then called @LAHD___ . See what happened.
