Expand Los Angeles housing supply, triple annual production, and allow duplexes, triplexes, and fourplexes near transit hubs.
Ramp up short-term housing, accelerate permanent affordable housing construction, and build more interim and permanent housing.
Issue with the biggest divide
Police staffing
Maintain roughly current LAPD staffing while opposing 170 additional officers over budget concerns.
Hire more cops, maintain a full police academy, and increase LAPD staffing as part of lowering crime and strengthening public safety.
City budget
Restore fiscal responsibility, tie homelessness spending to measurable outcomes, and increase the city’s small-business tax-exemption threshold.
Prioritize public safety, homelessness reduction, and road infrastructure while improving budget transparency through online dashboards.
Encampment response
Reduce people living in tents and encampments by at least 50%, use lower-cost shelter and rental subsidies, and shift motel programs toward rental vouchers and shared housing.
Use Inside Safe and a citywide homelessness action encampment strategy to bring people off the streets and into housing.
