Move LA Board members Dr. Danny Tabor, Anne-Marie Otey, and Joan Ling spoke at the one-year birthday celebration for @UnitedToHouseLA!
Measure ULA has raised $215M+ and is funding more affordable housing (including the project on the picture!) and tenant protections.
“Over 11,000 people have benefited from the rental assistance provided by Measure ULA.” - @CD13LosAngeles 👏👏👏
This is incredible, but it's just a start. We don’t only need to protect renters, but continue to use #MansionTax funds to create even more affordable housing.
On our anniversary, we want to celebrate one thing 🎂
The #MansionTax is making a historic impact despite the real estate industry’s major efforts to avoid the tax.
And there’s so much more to come in 2024 and beyond.
@esotouric We will be watching this very carefully—unless the infamous @AIDSHealthcare plans to make #Morrison into 💯 #affordablehousing, seller will pay $650K in #MeasureULA tax for renter aid and #Union-built homes. Thanks!
Housing is a human right! Measure ULA is here to stay!! We are relieved the legal challenges against ULA have been dismissed! We are proud to stand with @UnitedToHouseLA in this critical fight for safe and affordable housing in our city. ✊
One of the best things about the #MansionTax is that it is creating union careers that pay $40-60 an hour, with benefits for life.
We’re not just building affordable homes, we’re helping folks get the skills and economic power they need to build up their communities.
A UPS driver has died in Texas after collapsing on a sweltering day with a 108° heat index.
Chris Begley had been with UPS for 28 years and was getting ready to retire soon, his family said.
UPS Teamsters just won AC in trucks after years of refusals by management.
Today the Westside had a very bad day.
They scoffed when they were informed that people living in their streets used to live inside in their neighborhoods.
They mocked the rabbi who reminded them they were in a house of worship.
Some wore blue tape under their noses that reminded some of Hitler mustaches.
They do not want homeless people on their sidewalks and for damn sure they don't want them housed, even temporarily, in their district.
Today the Westside flaunted all the stereotypical elements the Westside often gets chided for: being heartless, selfish, unneighborly, NIMBY, and crass.
Maybe the Mayor should set up her Inside Safe HQ in West LA and start converting all those empty storefronts in Westwood Village with shelters since vacant shops seem to be super cool to so many?
