flag Los Angeles approves "Right to Counsel" for low-income tenants in eviction cases, funded by high-property tax.

flag The Los Angeles City Council has approved a "Right to Counsel" ordinance that will provide free legal representation to low-income tenants facing eviction. flag Tenants earning less than 80% of the area's median income will be eligible. flag Funding comes from Measure ULA, a tax on high-value property sales. flag The program could take up to five years to fully implement due to funding and staffing needs. flag This initiative follows similar policies in cities such as New York and San Francisco.
