Housing For All Is Hot

LA. Mutual aid, my dog, social housing, and organizing the working class. Married to my husband and revolution. I write sometimes. Views strong + my + my own.

Policies designed by people with no experience or education in homelessness are doomed to fail. The problem is that these ghouls also don't care if their policies fail.

All last week, our volunteers have been handing out tarps and plastic sheeting to people before the rain while the Trump administration slashed housing funding. Opponents of housing first apparently want work requirements for people who are disabled, seniors, or both.

A Latino family in L.A. sued over an illegal eviction. The landlord's lawyer, Rod Fehlman, warned in an email that they'd "likely be picked up by ICE and deported prior to trial thanks to all the good work the Trump administration has done."

The kicker? Every member of the family is a U.S. citizen.
Latino tenants sued their landlord. A lawyer told them they would be 'picked up by ICE.'
When a Latino tenant filed a lawsuit against a landlord and real estate agent for selling the home she was evicted from, an opposing lawyer suggested she'll likely be deported by ICE before trial.

If you're able, please consider donating to my friend Austin's GoFundMe. His father recently passed away, and without financial support, his dad will be laid to rest in a communal plot.

Austin and his family have been unhoused for four years.

Disgraceful. Without a judge's signature, landlords DO NOT have to comply with ICE subpoenas.

ICE has not slowed down and neither have the mutual aid volunteers in LA.

If you can spare anything, please donate so our street vendors don't have to pick between paying rent and being ripped away from their families.

Confirmed today: ICE is taking unhoused people who are unable to produce documents from the street to fulfill their quotas. People too poor to have any documentation on them, unable to prove where they come from.

A human rights disaster in the process.

If you want more American flags at protests, you are welcome to go to the protests and fly one. No one will stop you. You yourself can create that picture of tolerance and pluralism.

But don't sit on the sidelines and tell a community under racist assault not to assert its right to exist.

Gov. Newsom is demanding that every city in CA criminalize homelessness. Knowing we don't have any permanent housing for people to go into. Knowing we only have 39 shelter beds per 100 ppl. Knowing rent is at an all time high and people are spending their entire checks on rent.

How about 100 million American renters vs 10 million landlords 👀👀

If a "housing advocate" never says a word about the inherent parasitic relationship between landlords and tenants you can disregard anything they have to say.

We are a homeless and disabled family trying to raise funds for motel rent, groceries, pet supplies, and storage fees. We have until Friday to raise rent. Please repost and donate if you can. Anything helps, folks. We are desperate. We were featured in USA Today linked below w/ donation options.
Voucher program is supposed to help poor families rent a home. Nearly half the time, it fails.
Nearly half of people who receive federal housing vouchers are unable to use them. "It's a dire situation," one researcher said.

It's pouring rain in LA - so bad that people's tents are collapsing. In a healthy society, there would be warming centers every couple blocks, with vans driving around taking people there, but instead, there is nothing.

Just volunteers giving out tarp and tents until we run out.

Fremont CA has passed a measure banning homeless people from existing in public - they'll face citation and jail.

They also have criminalized anyone HELPING people living in these camps.

We're headed down a dark road where helping your unhoused neighbors is prohibited.

With almost 1 million ppl on the streets, the priority of the new Secretary of HUD is limiting transgender people from accessing shelter.

This administration does not give a single fuck about lowering rent prices or protecting renters or anything actually helpful to the poor.
Not only is this a cruel & mean-spirited first action by new HUD Sec. Scott Turner, at the end of the day it’s restricting access to shelter — the opposite of HUD’s mission.

Gave a tent to an older woman today. She was shivering and soaking wet in the rain. DV victim. Got almost beaten to death and escaped by climbing out a window at night two mos. ago, and can't pay rent alone. She's on a waitlist for a low income unit. Told it will take 6 years.

NEWS: Sources tell me that DOGE is setting its sights on the Department of Labor next. DOL workers have been ordered to give DOGE access to whatever they ask for—or risk termination.

“We’re supposed to stop everything we’re doing and do whatever the DOGE kids ask… It feels dirty and illegal.”

I’m not sure exactly how the NLRB processes showings of interest and what document retention or recording occurs, but I’d be very worried about Elon Musk and DOGE potentially having access to petitions filed by workers seeking to organize.

Not only is Fremont, CA voting on an ordinace that makes it illegal to be homeless, but it also targets volunteers with jail if they "aid and abet" anyone who is homeless.

They're literally trying to jail anyone who helps those with no place to live.

Should 'aiding' or 'abetting' a homeless camp be illegal? It might soon be a reality in this Bay Area city
The move is alarming California activists who worry they could be placed in the ordinance’s crosshairs for helping their homeless neighbors.

I think the MAGAs drunk with power are forgetting that the beurocracy was the compromise used to quell the rage of the organized poor. The NLRB was the alternative to your workers showing up to your house in the middle of the night.

Anyways a book recc for no particular reason.

What happened to Cornelius Taylor?

“father, son, brother, and beloved community member” - @atlantajustice.bsky.social

We knew Atlanta police bulldozed encampments, again — “the only shelter many have”

And now his family has the coroner’s report

So you decide.

This is WIC, food stamps, Section 8, senior/veteran housing, Medicare/caid. People - elderly folks, veterans, BABIES - will literally be evicted, go without medical treatment, and go hungry over this temper tantrum. He's playing with the lives of people like they're nothing.
