Thank you to the Junior League of Los Angeles for supporting the Kick It in the Park volunteer program, and to every volunteer who helped make it a success.

Official account for the 43rd Mayor of Los Angeles, Karen Bass.
In partnership with Councilmember Soto-Martinez, Councilmember Blumenfield and Councilmember Yaroslavsky, I signed the first major update to Los Angeles’ Rent Stabilization Ordinance in 40 years – strengthening protections for tenants and to keep Angelenos in their homes.
My "Games for All" vision is centered around ensuring that Angelenos benefit from the major events in Los Angeles. That vision became a reality during the 2026 FIFA World Cup, when we partnered with ShadeLA to install a mobile shade structure at our parks during our Kick it in the Park watch parties
Los Angeles is the entertainment capital of the world, and we are committed to making it easier for filmmakers to create right here in the city where the industry was born.
Los Angeles is home to one of the largest Youth Service Corps initiatives in California, which has connected 8,400 young Angelenos to jobs since Mayor Bass took office. Our youth are our future, and investing in them is an investment in the future of Los Angeles.
Every veteran deserves a safe place to call home. I was proud to cut the ribbon on this new 100% affordable housing project in Koreatown, transforming a former Craftsman home into 19 homes for veterans.
For 20 years, the Mar Vista Farmers Market has brought fresh food, local farmers, small businesses, and neighbors together. Farmers markets help strengthen our local economy, support California agriculture, and make healthy food more accessible to Angelenos.
Black-owned businesses like Harun Coffee in Leimert Park are community cornerstones. I had the honor of joining Prophet Walker and Banch Abegaze for a fireside chat.
Lineage shouldn’t even think about rebuilding until they’ve cleaned up the mess they’ve created. That’s why I am directing city departments to put their plans up on a shelf while a thorough investigation of the property and any future use is conducted.
Cleanup has begun, and this is the first step toward turning Oceanwide Plaza into the housing, jobs, retail, and economic opportunity it was always meant to deliver. We’re unlocking Downtown L.A.’s full potential.

Today, I brought together city, county, regional, and state leaders to drive the next phase of recovery following the Lineage warehouse fire and advance recovery across all jurisdictions.
As recovery continues, it’s important that the people most impacted remain at the center of every decision.
Grateful for leaders like @jonathanscott. I had the honor to join him on a tour of his family’s home that he is rebuilding with fire-proof, termite-resistant, and earthquake-resistant materials, one of the first of its kind in this community.
There's nothing like a summer night in Los Angeles. Cali Love brought incredible West Coast music, community, and culture to Pershing Square, reminding us why L.A. is the creative capital of the world. I am proud to support free events that strengthen our communities and bring Angelenos together.
My top priority for these major events is to ensure that they benefit all Angelenos.
For decades, Los Angeles waited for infrastructure to fail before fixing it. Every other major city has a long-term capital infrastructure plan. Los Angeles didn't.
Every year, the annual Hollywood Chamber of Commerce mayoral luncheon serves as a forum to work together to address the issues facing Los Angeles and how we’re fighting for our entertainment industry.
I believe in people leading policy. Today, I was joined by SAG-AFTRA National President Sean Astin, LA local President Joely Fisher, and NED & Chief Negotiator Duncan Crabtree-Ireland to discuss ways we can work together to support and protect our entertainment industry.
The World Cup may be over but our love for soccer continues. On National Soccer Day, we're kicking back to the joy and togetherness soccer brings across the city! ⚽
This corporation has devastated Boyle Heights and East L.A. I can’t believe they would even think about starting the rebuilding process while they haven’t cleaned up the mess they’ve created. That is what Lineage should be solely focused on.
Public transit is a public benefit. The people who depend on our transit system deserve a real voice in the decisions that shape it.
Golf is a world-class sport and every girl in Los Angeles should have access to the health and social benefits it brings. During the U.S. Women's Open Golf Championship we held 32 free Golf FORE Her clinics across the city, training up the next generation of golf champions! ⛳️
I've experienced firsthand how events like CicLAvia transform our streets into places where people connect, families explore, and local businesses thrive. Protecting these programs is more than policy to me; it's personal.
Sunset Boulevard is expected to reopen overnight. Thank you to the LADWP crews who have been working around the clock to make repairs. LADWP is also accelerating plans to fully replace the original pipe to strengthen reliability.
As Chair, I’ll build a long-term financial plan to make Metro fare-free. I’ve fought for a world-class transit system my entire career because public transit should create opportunity for everyone.
Inside Safe didn’t begin with a policy. It began with people. Annetta and I have spent decades working alongside Angelenos experiencing homelessness. That experience shaped Inside Safe because we know this work starts with compassion, urgency, and meeting people where they are.
I will never stop fighting until we end street homelessness, because no Angeleno should be sleeping on the street.
