Holly Mitchell to Address State Bills on Upcoming Developments
This is a special opportunity for our stakeholders from Hyde Park, Angeles Mesa and View Heights to hear directly from State Senator Holly Mitchell and ask questions about pending legislation that would change the very character of our communities.
Call on these Bills that would destroy our community
Please contact your state senator, assemblyman and the governor to oppose these nine bills that are coming through the pipeline. They are all on break now, because of Covid-19 exposure in Sacramento. If you would recall, SB50 was defeated last year. However, all of these bills have components of SB50. They pit communities against each other, and target single family home communities.
Emergency Renters Assistance Subsidy Program
The application will be open for five (5) days, starting at 8 AM on July 13th, and closing at 11:59 PM on July 17, 2020. After the application deadline, all applications submitted by 11:59 PM July 17th will be included in the random selection process. The subsidy is anticipated to assist an estimated 50,000 Los Angeles households. It will provide a grant of up to $1,000 per month, with a maximum grant of $2,000 per household, and will be paid directly to the tenant’s landlord on behalf of the tenant.

Changing Prop. 13 will generate a tax bill that will harm small businesses, especially those owned by minorities
For homeowners, small business owners and employers – large and small – Prop. 13 has provided stability, predictability and certainty. This certainty is even more important for the 46 percent of California businesses that are owned by racial minorities including African Americans.
