Official account for the 43rd Mayor of Los Angeles, Karen Bass.
This purposeful campaign of fear and intimidation by the administration is unacceptable. These tactics do not make anyone safer – they only sow terror in our communities and disrupt basic principles of safety in our city.

Chinatown, one of Los Angeles’ most historic neighborhoods, turns 88 this year! I encourage Angelenos to come support local businesses and spend an afternoon or evening experiencing one of the most special communities in our city.

We knew back in June that Los Angeles was the testing ground for this Administration’s campaign of fear and intimidation. I am outraged by the violence committed against people by ICE agents across the country, and it absolutely needs to stop.

For many immigrant families, the fear of ICE enforcement actions have made it difficult for parents to leave their homes to go to work or take care of their children’s most basic needs.

This holiday storm has brought prolonged heavy rain and wind across the L.A. region.

We are deploying every available City resource to support the ongoing response, including a local emergency declaration that I signed to ensure our teams have what they need in the days ahead.

This new law enacts more protections for renters, furthering our work to make Los Angeles more affordable, so that more Angelenos can not only make rent but also live full and stable lives.
