6:33 pm
room, wherever they people are allowed, you know, friends, we 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 own being done right now. the accounting hominy on the house before leaving on the streets. so we don't have the exact numbers yet, but it's going to be high. the numbers have increased from last year, even though that more is being done. or at least that's what being told. to the point that the numbers chairs last year alone, the amount of all homeless rose by 12 percent in california. right is the rent is to get the rent is damn high. the rent is too damn high
6:34 pm
the, the, the, the, the rent, the, the. 8 so we turned in over a $115000.00 signatures to get it the initiative on the ballot to expand rent controlled that to be on the california ballot in november 24th. and the apartment association is trying to its opposing that issue and trying to stop and try the alpha. we also delivered over 732000 signatures to the governor of california, governor newsome asking him not to oppose this measure. the transitional people. so what they're the, 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 case on the same,
6:35 pm
to not put their own initiative on the ballot to expand right controls or anything around the housing so they're hurting tenants, and also a job cost clinics in $45.00 different countries across the world. and they're trying to strip into something non profit simply because they don't want rent control the. my name is gina. i am with 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 changed very little money. i have a mortgage homeowners insurance and they wouldn't be and, and i couldn't even barely last 4 years. i couldn't raise it $5.00, but yet i had taxes to pay. i had insurance to pay, i had maintenance to keep up and i just paid them. wow, wow,
6:36 pm
sense of dollars to move out. it's not there. 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 that? somebody take care of you. care complain at the grocery store complained that your medicine is why is it just the landlord some small landlords, i'm thinking about landlords that have, you know, a couple of units they're worried as well because with that high risk go up with corporate driving the, the rates are 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 rates are the corporate land. unfortunately, the fix the small business as the effect,
6:37 pm
the small landlords. so we're here to let them know that, you know, if we bring rank control 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, because 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 in places where it goes missing all the time to cover it. that's probably the way rent is getting so high because half the people who live there never pay the rent. somehow. somehow i feel like criminal is running a sitting. i really do me. my name is joaquin mother golf. i'm 51 years old. i'll be 52 in april and i've been homeless off and on us

6:41 pm
thank you. hi, my name is mailed to the correct number for phone, an executive director of the shower of whole and like the name says, we provide mobile show us to people who are experiencing homeless those same in los angeles. and what we do is we take these mobile shows, they can see over here the various different locations. we have approximately 50 sites in los angeles. we pocket in locations where it's close to folks like experiencing homelessness. and we offer gen them shot was even for what the city like los angeles, that's very little public infrastructure. when he comes for you to use public chavo lelona that through so fall on and so forth. so sleep on our streets. it's a constant struggle of looking at which gas station, which a coffee shop will let them just like use the bathroom. but when he comes to show
6:42 pm
us a lot of, i guess if it would for us only have access to shut, 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. how does it to you? oh, it's good. it's always good to go. i got a hutch down the half hours. okay. yeah, so i was giving it a hutch i own own lives and my god apply for a shower to yes, i'd be a good shower. the differences, 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,
6:43 pm
food in security is, is lack of access to healthy, put, lack of access to food. 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 that mcarthur park union district of los angeles is one the most under served communities in los angeles. i love, i. 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
6:44 pm
for, for several blocks here or to, to come to the pantry 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. they start fresh vegetables, they would pick yesterday. so you're not going to find any, any fresh or uh, products done here, and they do serve the people who serve it. 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,
6:45 pm
to take instead of us giving you a bag of food the most likely you're not going to like we allowed them to make several choices here and take food that they love to cook the show. they just don't have to shape house and engagement equals the trail. when so many find themselves will to parts we choose to look so common ground the a homeless. his home is a rear. i have a the problem is only about $0.50 a month,
6:46 pm
right. where am enjoy old a? 6262 evenings homeless for a while. continue so many years see 10 years. so i'll just do. like, for example, you got to pay the french a deal. where am i right here the getting some really low versus the the got continues to grow. you know, we saw back in the eighty's and ninety's that 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 the that thanks. if we have people coming to our food banks that have jobs and some of them have good jobs,
6:47 pm
but they can not make ends meet foreclosure. we're right now we'll go through it. one is the last i know how do i i just leave my hand charger but not the no bill. can you say? can you see the home for? no, i'm not here. tom, this is this where address a is there a bad day? all right, man, that he yeah. the
6:48 pm
i want to can you hold on a 2nd the 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?
6:49 pm
you work with interior design or the was it worth coming here? they're hard or you're able to see all the flight to afford a place here. not many people can do what to do. like if you're not able to 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 of the insecurity. the numbers are staggering. we have approximately 10000000 people in
6:50 pm
california that are risk. i'll be coming on house. and part of the reason is because the rain site is very high. people struggle to make ends meet some people working to pretty jobs and still not enough because of the cost of leaving also has increase. so let's say $3500.00 for one bedroom. it was way across the street apartment. yeah, they just, they just billed and they just opened them up. and for a one bedroom, the $13500.00. that's what we have to deal with. so the data affects everybody around here, the whole community and all the prices go up with. they have people that building these things up. but why then there's a voice to be, sir, if you're not able to afford the leaving the right there is people, they can't co habits, he can't get along. so they can't. well,
6:51 pm
the next coming up relation apparently can live with 10 people in a, 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 her why do you to text messages? you 100? are you just the michelle? so you're thinking about this is the right thing. wonder where they are for the the room. so nearby. jack is the same flags we met them there. they're still there putting up was the bull since last week. um um and gave kelly,
6:52 pm
i think her name the day or the give her um, what is the the called the non non warranty? an auction thing. have you guys seem to be fine and we, i want to see this about time after 46 people that already passed the internet and 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 had with miss and, and they was like, oh, she had went to the hospital or went to jail as you folks come back. and nobody knew where she was in need of them line they found her. did they send me not too far from the shelter. so how you didn't they don't care about where about nothing. all the program i'm going to program a job. so the bus is little bit like says today and that way. so let's say do
6:53 pm
1520 percent of what your income is that by your rent, up in the 30 a month. you can use that as soon as i add the time, i'm so tired of move out most people in my apartment and do a medicine crap. and they're more and more people become seamless though. there's none to the co bags. and so by dividing doesn't making better as the governor. so the level to lower the rent. we know that the numbers are high and there's a lot of money that comes a lot. the money is blown away and varies. we see very little come idle with that. you know, so this spend a lot of money. you mean government government?
6:54 pm
yes. they spend a lot of money. and the labor very little rent has just really taken off the restrictions on how to rent have changed. they want you to have a deposit of, you know, same, we sometimes want you put 3 months down or prove you can pay 3 months when you, you know, there's, these are things that a lot of people wouldn't qualify for with good jobs. so they 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, it was 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 with 40 or a week, jobs are choosing to buy groceries or pay their rents. and we're talking
6:55 pm
single people. 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 like guys 1000000 a year. the sell a baby show me. wow. you're looking for low read our movies . because people come out here for the dream says their dreams. i would say i am
6:56 pm
rich for me. i'm. i'm, i'm on my way to be rich next year. i'm about $88000000.00 house. me and i'm working on manifesting. i made it as a minute, as of right now already body for me. i look at it. i visualize it. i know the address to me. that's what it lies about me. when you see that house just, you'll see me and it is lend his house for me. welcome to welcome to holly will let them know that welcome to welcome to dreamland for james. come through the i know honestly it's probably hard deliver. 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. it's 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
6:57 pm
walking into a supermarket and you can buying or 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 state in regards even in places that we deem liberal. you know, california is not very liberal about this. now they're not as compassionate as people think about the sense the subject looks good to go. no, i'm good. thank you sir. but the people are always people good or the thing that like the right the all depends on the day. how
6:58 pm
can fit in going to bed in kenner? that's why the to obtain or isn't center 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 a cause of rent. so now they living in their carts after working all their lights. and yes, they are certain programs available that was subsidized for some of the housing. but not everybody gets it. this is why people i sold these harden and they have no faith in the government because the government has stopped working. so the people,
6:59 pm
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, [000:00:00;00]
