8:30 am
of somewhere around 80000 people that are on house. here's the problem that be now house me coming different forms because there are some people that are leaving or cars. there are some people that are pretty much going from one living room to another living room, wherever they people are allowed. you know, friends, me allow them to come in and, and have a roof over their heads on a temporary basis. but then you also have people that live on the streets, hearing los angeles right now there's, there's a, as we speak, we have a homeless out being done right now. the counting, how many on house before leaving on the streets. so we don't have the exact numbers yet, but he's going to be high. the numbers have increase from last year, even though that more is being done. or at least that's what being told. to the point that the numbers she has last year alone. the amount of all homeless
8:31 am
rose by 12 percent in california right is the rent is to get the rent is damn high, the rent is too damn time the number on the, the, the, the rent, the, the. 8 so we turned in over a 115000 signatures to get it in. if it is on the ballot to expand control that to be on the california ballot in november of 2024. and the apartment association is trying to its opposing that issue in time to stop in trying to stop us. we also delivered over 732000 signatures to the governor of california, governor newsome asking him not to oppose this measure. how are they trying to sell
8:32 am
people? so what they're, they're, what the california apartment association is doing is they're trying to put in initiative. i'm with valley, which basically says that a top kept on the same to not put their own initiative on the ballot to expand rent controls or anything around the housing. so they're hurting tenants and also a junk cars clinics in 45 different countries across the world. and they're trying to strip into something non profit simply because they don't want to bring to the my name is gina. i am a small mom, landlord and i, we have a bit of an issue when they're calling landlords of liter. you don't hear our side of the story. i have a very little money. i have a mortgage homeowners insurance, and they wouldn't be and,
8:33 am
and i couldn't even barely last for years. i couldn't raise it $5.00. but yet i had taxes to pay. i had insurance to pay, i had maintenance to cheaper, and i just pay them. wow. wow, sense of dollars to move out? it's not fair. where is our side of the protection? they should be mad at the government and to the government to pay their rent. why should i have to take care of somebody take care of health care complaint at the grocery store complained that your medicine is, why is it just the landlord by me, landlord. so i'm thinking about landlords that have, you know, a couple units there. worry as well because with that high when school, which for it, well i mean the,
8:34 am
the range of fix the hard to keep up with it. so it's affecting them as well. but the fact of the matter is that the ones that are controlling and pushing pull the high range are the corporate land. unfortunately, the fix, the small businesses, the affect, the small landlords. so we're to let them know that, you know, if we bring rent controlled to california, it's a positive thing moving forward because they're going to be able to not being terminated by corporate landlords. don't want to take their properties as well. the housing rates are going to keep going up, like if you go to a gas station and buy budweiser and the price goes up a dollar every day, just because, like somebody steals too much budweiser from that store. you know, that's just the way that it goes, you know, and originally they raise a price up of things and places where it goes missing all the time to cover it. that's probably why the rent is getting so high because half the people who live or never pay the rent. somehow. somehow. i feel like criminals run the city.
8:35 am
i really do. my name's walking by the golf. i'm 51 years old. i'll be 52 in april and been homeless off and on since 2006 and where do you live? right here in this truck? so why is it so weight? oh, well, there really isn't a way to get to on top of things. what the economy just deteriorating is it, is there is not a way for the way just to catch up up to what the prices are for, for rent a person is trying to get to and maybe even have a studio apartment here in this area is going to be at least $1500.00 a month and even with some help 1st for move in. and it's, it's a little bit, uh, it's a little, there's a little bit more to it than just uh, you know, making a decision. uh because the economy is, hey, it's in the gates

8:39 am
a public chavo lelona that through so fall off the full. so sleep on our streets. it's a constant struggle of looking at which gas station, which coffee shop will let them just let use the bad throw. but when he comes to show us a lot of our guess, if it wasn't for us only have access to shot was maybe once a month for a lot of folks, it's going into a bathroom at a place like a coffee shop and taking a buzz back out of a sink. so that's why it's so critical and, and that's so much the man for our services now. does it to you? oh, it's good. it's always good to go. i got a hutch down the half hours. okay. yeah, yeah, it's always good to get a hot challenge homeless that my god to apply for a shower to you. yes, i did get a break shower of the differences,
8:40 am
economic differences between groups, race groups, particular are huge. and these starts on the very beginning. their lack of uh, being able to have a good education. let's talk about, let's say for example, put in security is, is lack of access to healthy, put lack of access to flu. and a lot of our communities of color don't have access to healthy food. they just don't, so you see those this bear with me right there. that any quality whereas you go to well do neighborhoods or neighborhoods of, of, of white folks. you'll see that they are, they have better jobs, better paying their more resources. so yes, a racism a place that very important part on the economic status, whether you're going to end up homeless on the street or not. this is known as the mcarthur park union district of los angeles. this one the most under served
8:41 am
communities in los angeles. i love the immigrants are here. most of them don't speak english. we have a here, you can see a lot of seniors and we have people that struggle to put, put in the table. and people have very little resources. most of them actually want for, for several blocks here to, to come to the band 3. and a lot of them are very fragile, they elderly. so this is a 9 o'clock we, what we have done is we set up an appointment system. so people can actually sign up and, and have an appointment instead of them being in line for hours. what's happening is that before prior to we having an appointment system, people used to be here at 12 midnight. i literally spend the night here waiting for us to open. so we decided to do an appointment system. today we're going to be providing groceries for $400.00 people. these are fresh vegetables that would pick yesterday, so you're not gonna make buying any, any pressure up products done here. and they do serve as the people who serve it.
8:42 am
and i'd say we're very excited about being able to, to serve the community. what we do here is we set it up like farmers market style. so people are able to come here and actually pick what they like to to take instead of giving you a bag of food the most likely you're not going to like we allowed them to make several choices here. i'm take food that they love to cook, the russian state. never as tight as i'm one of the most sense community best ingles, i'll send send up the send the 6595 and speed. what else? suppose question about this. even though we will then in the european union, the kremlin, the machine, the state on the rushes to day and split the ortiz full neck,
8:43 am
even our video agency, roughly all the band on youtube tv services. what question did you say even closer to the man or that one was the last to someone that just didn't want to find martha? this particular moisture based issue i, if i do,
8:44 am
for you under the guise of evacuation about 50000 people were transported the, the main purpose of this concentration camp in federal rules was to in think prisoners was type us and use them as a human shield against the advancing soviet on a given mind, but feeling for them to form the problem. if there was one of us, bruce given it was in love with like you're getting picked up with the ship ship a presto survivor stuff. but don't want to bring your name. you know, i'm so sorry i missed because on your certificate seems to put your salary and as a to see if the nazis use people is biological weapons leaving them to perish without food, water or shelter. the do of small it there for me. if i did so could i think it was, it was usually the smart the can you put the infringe nationwide?
8:45 am
just put an easy issue really ship for them to move the cam gloucester 10 days or what else made it drastically defense from other camps of the 3rd rice watch on t a homeless. his home is a rear. i have a problem is only about $0.50 a month right for him enjoy. holding for 6262. you been homeless for a while. that's in you for many years. see 10 years so i'm just gonna go right ahead. and popo, see i have to pay the pension deal. where am i right here to help with only getting some really low version you the, the gap continues to grow. you know,
8:46 am
we saw back in the eighty's and ninety's the early, the early part of the century here, where we saw an attack against the middle class. there is the more middle class, either you'll have what you don't have. so to say that you're in the middle class is a fantasy because he doesn't exist. we have people coming to our food banks that have jobs, and some of them have good jobs, but they can not make ends meet the fuel cause we're right now. we'll go through it and i have one is the last i lose. oh, how can i do i have i just leave my hands after the charger. boom. boom. can you see? yeah. can you see the on board?
8:47 am
oh hi i'm, i'm not here tom, this this way to address a bad day. all right man, that he yeah. the the
8:48 am
right you enjoy that. thank you so much lady. do leave here. i do. i do. this is not heroine. that's a i went to a doctor this morning. why did you come from effect? you work with interior design or the was it worth coming here? yeah. pard, the able to see of the flight to afford a place here. not many people can do what to do. like if you are not able to
8:49 am
afford your partner, like what to do in a city and you're looking at it. yeah, i mean possibly people could die on the beach. people get sick, they get diseases and mental illness insecurity. the numbers are staggering. we have approximately 10000000 people in california that are risk of becoming on house. and part of the reason is because the rates are just very high. people struggle to make ends meet. some people are working to 3 jobs and still not enough because the cost of living also has increase . for let's say $3500.00 for one bedroom. it was way across the street apartment. yeah, they just, they just bills and they just opened them up. and for one bedroom, the $13500.00. that's what we have to deal with. so the dentist takes everybody along here, the whole community and all the prices go up with they have people like that
8:50 am
building these things up. but why then does it work to be, sir? if you're not able to afford the leaving the right there to this people, they can't co habits, he can't get a long so they can't. well, the next coming up relation apparently can live with 10 people into an apartment in california. and people have to live with a lot of people. so there's a lot of problems familiar, sexual assault on the finger problems. so they said it's a, he's the se, se thing, but we show them physical evidence of him doing that. i even have a text message from me and my roommate talking, speaking about how he threatened her life. i gave patch the text messages. i gave
8:51 am
the body to text messages. michelle, could you thinking about the sales that was the right thing when they were there for people di, room, so nearby job is the same way we met them there. they're still there. what do you know possible since last week? um um and gave kelly, i think her name the day or the give her um what is the the, the non non warranty and not seeing anything. have you guys seem to be fine and we, i want to see this about time after 46 people didn't already know they weren't in on. yeah. yeah. i know i really don't know and, and then people go up missing and they don't even try to sit in see nothing about it. you remember the model one with the rabbit she have with miss and then they was like, oh, she had went to the hospital or with the jail as you folks come back and nobody
8:52 am
knew where, where they needed them line. they found her date space and not too far from the shelter. so how you didn't, they don't care about uh where about nothing. all the program. i'm gonna have programs. all sorts of less is little bit like service today and that way. so let's say do 1520 percent of what your income is that by your rent, up in the 30 a month. your income you sir, is that as soon as i have some time to try to move out most people in my apartment and do a medicine pratt, and then more and more people become stainless nowadays. so then the co bags and then he'll buy your bite and doesn't make me better as the governor. so the landlord to lower the rent.
8:53 am
we know that the numbers are high and there's a lot of money that comes in. but the money is blown away. and varies, we see very little come out over that. you know, so they spend a lot of money. you mean government? government? yes. does spend a lot of money on the labor very little rent has just really taken off on the restrictions on how to rent have changed. they want you to have a deposit of, you know, same with sometimes what you put 3 months down or prove you can pay 3 months when you do, you know these, these are things that a lot of people wouldn't qualify for with good jobs. so they've made it so hard that a person with a pretty well paying job, couldn't cutting right here. and there was a time, i mean, i was
8:54 am
a while ago 253 years ago. you could be a starving artist here in and have a pretty fun life. it wasn't. maybe you wouldn't have a big savings account, but you would have a safe place to live here without food. you would have a car for now, people are choosing and we're talking about people is 40 hour week jobs, are choosing to buy groceries or pay their rents and we're taking single pay by i can't imagine having a family what that would entail. so it wasn't always this unapproachable to live here was actually quite the opposite for a long time, the guys come to hollywood, get some of the money. this is 50 k and 1000000 looks like where does 1000000 a year? the
8:55 am
sell a baby. so me be looking for low risk, our movies, because people come out here for a dream says their dream. i would say i am rich for me. i'm, i'm, i'm on my way to be rich next year. i'm a buy a $1000000.00 house to me. and i'm, i'm working on manifesting that. i made it as women. if there's a right now already body for me. i'll look at it. i visualize it. i know the address. i mean that's what it weighs about. i mean, when you see the houses, you'll see me and it is lend his house for me. welcome to welcome to hollywood local. now i welcome to welcome to dreamland for james. come through the,
8:56 am
i mean, no, honestly, it's probably hard to live over. it is hard, it's hard to drive down the street and see this, and i think people are either going to be propelled, to have empathy and do something or possibly inches shut down. its hard, hard to go in every area, every neighborhood, everywhere, and seeing and countless play not feel even just guilty. you know that you're walking into a supermarket and you can buy your food or you can do it and you can live. you have a home, you know, the, there's no kindness in any city or say, in regards even in places that we deem liberal. you know, california is not very liberal about this. you know, they're not as compassionate as people. think about the steps the subject
8:57 am
looks good and then for now i would think so, but the people i always people good or for not like the room. right. the all depends on the day how it is going to look bad on kenner. dinner isn't the dinner we're through so there is different factors that may affect our seniors. and most important is, is that the safety nets that existed, they being taken away. so he's very difficult. i know people that have retire with the kind of retirement checks that they're getting cannot keep up with
8:58 am
a cause of rent. so now they living in their carts after working all their lights and, and yes, they are certain programs available that was subsidized for some of the housing. but not everybody gets in. this is why people i sold these harden and they have no faith in the government because the government has stopped working for the people. the amount of people that are more discussed with politicians and politics and political parties has grown in huge numbers. people just don't trust what they say . they say a lot, but the labor very little or nothing. the money to do that to at that point. but as due to x amount apache
8:59 am
sat there for the show have any tool here job loss of because of a dish. uh, international stuff is defensive to supplement is such a button and not to mention in for 2 months. did you lose it asked if i said the media, i love the focus on the 2 reasons. can you say, when you say the new country can be sure to be present the day before the work? you don, stimulus the industry on. is it what's money before us of the left? so should william farmer shots, monuments who we have called car started? oh, what decision did my name and what was that man? what was that ridiculous problems? i put in the best one today and but to do the concept. so that's what it is that you want to set. i'm sure those are pretty sure can was on page to refresh the screen. those are best do what i mean. there's a, there's
9:00 am
a problem push out the, in the headlines or whatnot you international must go to it as well for me and unloved, and also wellbeing down the investigation of an old stream pipeline sabotage that took place exactly 2 years ago. no surprise, russia says the west is trying to cover it, some track hungry to aggression against russia by any non nuclear states. but with the support of a nuclear state is proposed to be considered as their joint attack on russia. is it a final warning president put in, lays out major changes to rough as nuclear doctrines suggesting the use of such weapons in response to new types of attacks, including long range missiles and drug and israel bombs, lab, and on for a full day in a row claiming quote, precise strikes on with the capital.
