Refusing to rent to Housing Choice Voucher holders is illegal, it is making our homeless crisis worse, and it must stop. Yesterday, we filed 112 complaints with the California Civil Rights Department, documenting housing discrimination by 203 landlords, real estate agents, and brokerage firms. I believe this is the largest housing discrimination case in California history.

Yes on Measure A!
Home is more than just shelter—it's about hope, safety, and community. Our #HomeisHope campaign showcases how housing and essential services are changing lives. Over the next few weeks, you’ll hear personal stories from individuals across the County, illustrating that this crisis affects real people, not just statistics. Through mental health care, job assistance, and substance abuse treatment, lives are being rebuilt and hope restored. But with crucial funding at risk and key policies in need of support, now is the time for Angelenos to take action. Be part of the solution. Together, we can break the cycle of homelessness and build a future where every Angeleno has a place to call home. Visit TheAngelenoProject.org to learn more about our efforts. Learn more at MeasureAFacts.com for details on the ballot measure.
