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.

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.

Mayor Karen Bass @mayor.lacity.gov · 28/09/2026

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.

Public safety requires all of us. It means bringing communities together, investing in young people and making sure they have people in their corner. That’s what we’re doing across Los Angeles. We’re seeing the results, and we’re going to keep going.

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

I will continue doing everything in my authority to connect residents to critical assistance and to demand the answers and accountability this community deserves.

These pieces of legislation ensure cold storage companies take responsibility for the impacts of their operations, provide critical protections for residents in the event of an emergency, and allow cities and counties to impose higher fines when the health and safety of communities are threatened.

I appreciate Governor Newsom signing this critical legislation that Assemblymember Mark González, Senator María Elena Durazo, and I worked on and got across the finish line to help the people of Boyle Heights and East L.A. www.latimes.com/california/s...

New California safety laws tighten commercial rules after Lineage fire in Boyle Heights

Gov. Gavin Newsom signed bills imposing higher fines and emergency fund rules on industrial facilities following a Lineage storage facility fire in Boyle Heights.

Every ballot can be handed to your letter carrier at the door – no postage is necessary – at any ballot drop box, or at any Vote Center in L.A. County.

We are lucky in California that every registered voter will be mailed a ballot during the first week of October, and they don't have to leave their home to return it.

Generations of Americans have marched, organized, and lost their lives to secure the right to vote. Throughout our history, when that right has been challenged, Americans have answered by fighting for it.

Supreme Court upholds Trump’s expanded citizenship data checks, stoking fears of voter purges

Let's be clear about what's happening: the Trump Administration is trying to create confusion and discourage people from exercising their right to vote. It's undemocratic and un-American. www.latimes.com/politics/sto...

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.

And I thank the bipartisan leadership of Senators Adam Schiff and Tim Scott, and Representatives Linda Sánchez, Laura Friedman, and Nathaniel Moran for understanding the importance of investing in an industry that is so critical to Los Angeles and the country.

I want to recognize the Motion Picture Association, our entertainment labor unions, and industry partners who have led this effort in Washington and worked closely with my Office to build support and momentum for this legislation.

…a federal tax credit is needed so local incentives remain competitive with countries who offer larger benefits that have drawn productions out of the United States.

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…

Cuando una compañía pone en riesgo la salud y la seguridad de una comunidad, las consecuencias deben ser lo suficientemente serias para obligarla a actuar. Gobernador Newsom, las ciudades necesitan el poder para actuar cuando las compañías ponen en riesgo a nuestras comunidades. Firme la SB 716.

030

Trabajé con la senadora María Elena Durazo para impulsar la SB 716, que daría a las ciudades herramientas más fuertes para hacer cumplir la ley y permitiría imponer multas de hasta $50,000 por infracción durante emergencias que cumplan con los requisitos.

Exigimos de manera urgente una limpieza rápida. Establecimos plazos. Tomamos medidas de emergencia. Pero la ley limitaba la capacidad de la Ciudad para imponer multas que estuvieran a la altura del daño causado. Así que tomamos medidas para cambiar la ley.

131

Una compañía puede pagar una multa de $2,000. Las familias no pueden darse el lujo de vivir durante meses con las consecuencias.

120

El incendio de Lineage revelo un grave problema: una multa de $2,000 no es suficiente para lograr que una compañía multimillonaria actúe con la urgencia que nuestras comunidades merecen.

131

When a corporation puts a community's health and safety at risk, the consequences need to be serious enough to compel action. Cities need the power to act when corporations put our communities at risk. Governor Newsom, sign SB 716.

141

I worked with Senator María Elena Durazo to advance SB 716, which would give cities stronger enforcement tools and allow fines of up to $50,000 per violation during qualifying emergencies.

230

We pushed for faster cleanup. We set deadlines. We took emergency action but the law limited the City's ability to impose fines that matched the scale of the harm. So we took action to change the law.

131

Mayor Karen Bass @mayor.lacity.gov · 24/09/2026

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.

We’ve already built a record 10,000+ affordable housing units, and we’re not slowing down. I’ll continue accelerating housing production across L.A. to build the housing people can afford. Los Angeles is drastically building more affordable housing, faster.

Mayor Karen Bass @mayor.lacity.gov · 24/09/2026

I worked with the business community, developers, labor groups, and affordable housing advocates to identify and eliminate the bureaucracy that has held Los Angeles back – now, we’re seeing the results.

Mayor Karen Bass @mayor.lacity.gov · 24/09/2026

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

When we support them, we’re investing in the people who have spent generations building Los Angeles. And if you find yourself in Tarzana, stop by. The homemade Armenian food is worth it.

Mayor Karen Bass @mayor.lacity.gov · 23/09/2026

Across this city, small businesses have given families a foothold, created opportunity for the next generation and helped turn neighborhoods into places people are proud to call home.

Mayor Karen Bass @mayor.lacity.gov · 23/09/2026

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.

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.

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