Keep LA Housed is a coalition of tenants, tenant rights advocates, public interest lawyers, and community based organizations with the goal of enacting the Tenant Bill of Rights in cities throughout Los Angeles County! https://www.keeplahoused.org/
Immigrant renters are being silenced by fear. Landlords exploit ICE threats & HUD’s new "data" demands to deny housing, hike fees & ignore repairs. Understandably, terror keeps tenants from exercising even the most basic of protections. This is wrong!

We must update LARSO and make it more tenant-friendly so LA families aren't forced to choose between paying rent and buying food. Contact the City Council today at acceaction.org/CapTheRentLA and tell them we need a stronger LARSO!
About 70 community members gathered in Watts for a town hall to hear why Councilmember Tim McOsker and the rest of the LA City Council must #CapTheRentAt3 %! We need Councilmember McOsker to take action as so many tenants are struggling with rent hikes that are increasingly unsustainable.
"Documenting harassment related to immigration status is important...But the most important thing tenants can do is organize with their neighbors, instead of trying to fight alone, to have some protection from deportation. This is an opportunity for people who are less vulnerable to support others."
Join ACCE, @keeplahoused.bsky.social @dsa.la @caworkingfamilies.bsky.social for a townhall in Watts to learn about the fight for immigrant rights and to reform Los Angeles' Rent Stabilization Ordinance (LARSO). Interpretation available.
6:00 PM Wednesday, July 30th
9900 Grape St., Los Angeles

“It’s frustrating that the Council hasn’t taken action. People are struggling to pay between groceries, utilities, rents and making difficult choices that impact them. And our members’ number one concern is being evicted and becoming homeless.”

The Supreme Court has given Trump and DOGE permission to throw federal workers out of their jobs and cleared the way for even more mass firings. We’ll keep working and organizing to ensure federal workers know how to exercise their rights. This isn't over. aflcio.org/press/releas...
"What you see happening in MacArthur Park is coming to you," she said. "$140 billion new budget for ICE.
What do you think that's going to do? That's going to transport what's happening here in our neighborhoods to your front doorstep. So wake up." Your city is next.

"Starting Tuesday, rent increases for most apartment dwellers in Los Angeles will be capped at 3% or up to 5% if utilities are included. The new limits are taking effect at a time when the L.A. City Council continues to put off voting on a plan to update the city’s decades-old rent control formula."
“This could have the result of increasing homelessness for entire families.”

California AG @robbonta.bsky.social sues one of the state's largest landlords alleging widespread tenant exploitation and violations of housing and anti-discrimination laws. Firms linked to Mike Nijjar own more than 22k units and have long been on authorities' radar www.latimes.com/homeless-hou...
Christina Boyar, an attorney with Public Counsel and a Keep LA Housed member, said minor policy tweaks can greatly affect housing stability:
“While it may seem like a small difference, [an extra 1% or 2% each year] is hundreds of dollars for working families who are already struggling.”
"KLAH wants to let [LA's] allowable increases go as low as 0% in years with flat or negative inflation and end the 10% bump landlords are allowed to charge when tenants bring additional residents into their household. If the council fails to act, rents will be allowed to rise between 3% and 5%."

"Nearly three million children risk losing their homes every year through the eviction process....Even the threat of eviction can increase the odds of school moves and disenrollment, moves to worse-off schools, and increased school absences and suspensions."

"By contrast, during 2024 evictions became more common in more than half of the cities that [the Eviction Lab] tracks. Of the 35 cities in the ETS, 19 had a higher eviction filing rate in 2024 than was typical before the pandemic."
