The raids may have left the daily headlines, but they haven’t left our city. I will continue using every lawful tool available to protect Angelenos.

This is the latest action we’ve taken since the immigration raids began in Los Angeles — from providing emergency relief to impacted families and taking legal action to strengthening City protocols and working alongside immigrant rights organizations.

City-owned lots and open spaces must be marked as off-limits for immigration enforcement staging and processing. City departments must secure appropriate City sites against unauthorized access and City contractors must disclose certain data-sharing agreements with federal immigration agencies.

110

I signed key protections from Executive Directive 17 into City law. We are ensuring City property can’t be turned into a staging ground for immigration enforcement.

We’re repairing and replacing up to 60,000 street lights and using solar technology to make them more reliable, environmentally sustainable, and less vulnerable to copper wire theft.

170

This is a multi-year investment, but we are already seeing progress across L.A. The numbers here are just a snapshot of that progress as we continue installing more street lights citywide.

160

Instead, I launched the largest investment in L.A. street light infrastructure in our city’s history.

For years, inoperable street lights piled up across Los Angeles. We inherited a decade-long repair backlog, with tens of thousands of street light service requests across the city. But I couldn’t accept that.

If you want to reduce crime and prevent violence, you have to give people opportunities.

Happy Mid-Autumn Festival to everyone celebrating in Los Angeles and around the world! This is a special time to gather with loved ones and celebrate family, gratitude and togetherness. May this season bring peace, prosperity and joy to you and your loved ones.

A safe neighborhood is one where families can come together and enjoy it in public spaces. This September, we’re making more room for neighbors to connect, kids to have fun, and families to spend Friday nights together. 💛 Learn more at gryd.lacity.gov/fall-friday-nights

When I became Mayor, I made changing that a priority. Now we’re seeing results. 10,000+ affordable homes have been built, and L.A. is building more than 4X as many affordable homes each year as before. We changed the way L.A. builds but we still have a long way to go. And we’re not slowing down.

041

For decades our housing supply shrunk while our population grew. Developers were giving up on building in Los Angeles. City Hall was a barrier—building was expensive and took too long.

We’re seeing the results of the continued advocacy in Washington with the introduction of the federal film and television tax credit bill. While I’ve worked aggressively with labor and entertainment industry leaders to expand state-level tax incentives and reduce filming fees locally…

L.A. is building more affordable housing, faster. 10,000+ new affordable homes have been built, with thousands more on the way. Learn more at bit.ly/buildingmorefaster

The Lineage fire exposed a serious problem: a $2,000 fine isn't enough to make a multibillion-dollar corporation act with the urgency our communities deserve. A corporation can afford a $2,000 fine. Families can't afford months of living with the consequences.

Since day one, I have focused on making life more affordable for Angelenos by building the affordable housing that we desperately need.

In 1972, a mother of five opened a small restaurant in Tarzana and began building a dream her family could carry forward. Fifty-four years later, they still are. That’s the story of Tarzana Armenian Deli, but it’s also a Los Angeles story.

Our responsibility is to make sure Angelenos, athletes, and visitors are safe not only inside our venues, but across L.A. I want to thank Governor Newsom and Assemblymember McKinnor for recognizing this important need and for working with us to get this done.

The 2028 Games will be the largest and most complex sporting event the world has ever seen.

If you own a business in Los Angeles, we want you at the table. The Games may last a few weeks, but the opportunities can last for years. We want L.A. businesses to win contracts, grow and turn these opportunities into long-term success.

130

That’s why I created the Sports & Entertainment Procurement Summit, connecting local businesses directly with buyers, resources and contracting opportunities.

Major events are coming to Los Angeles, and I want L.A. businesses to benefit from the opportunities they bring.

Los Angeles is proud to be a city where people can celebrate where they come from and know that they belong.

As we mark 205 years of independence for Mexico and many Central American nations, we celebrate generations of families who have carried their cultures and traditions with them and made them part of the fabric of Los Angeles.

2307

I want to thank Councilmember Hugo Soto-Martinez and the entire DEFISAL Foundation for 27 years of bringing people together and keeping these traditions alive for the next generation.

What a joy to be in Los Angeles celebrating the history, culture, and traditions of our Mexican, Salvadoran, and Central American communities.

We already knew Chinatown was one of L.A.’s coolest neighborhoods. Now Time Out has ranked it one of the coolest in the world.

A recent study estimates the Olympic Games could generate up to $40.6 billion in economic output and support more than 200,000 jobs across our region.

Mayor Karen Bass @mayor.lacity.gov · 19/09/2026

The 2028 Games will create jobs, and I want Angelenos to get those jobs. Today, we lit the torch to kick off RELAY28, bringing together employers, labor, philanthropy, and community partners to help connect Angelenos to the opportunities ahead.
