All of this combines to make paying rent much more difficult.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Taking heed of this, the Los Angeles County, Californian, Federal Governments have passed legislative action to assist Californian taxpayers with their bills.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> The following is a concise list of them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>1. The Federal CARES Act<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After lengthy negotiations, the U.S Federal Government signed into law the CARES (Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security) Act.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>This piece of legislation stipulates that <\/b><b><br \/>\n<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Single adults who have a gross income of $75,000 or less on their 2019 tax return a one-time check for $1,200.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Married couples who filed jointly will receive $2,400.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Families will get an additional $500 for each child under 17.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If an individual\u2019s annual income is over $75,000\/year, then their payment will shrink by $5.00 for every $100.00 earned over. (For example, an individual that makes $87,500\/year would have $625.00 marked off their check and receive $575.00 instead).<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unfortunately, people who typically don\u2019t file a tax return will not receive a package until they file, and <\/span><b>individuals without a social security number and U.S citizens who are married to one are excluded from receiving a check.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> In addition, The CARES act also freezes student loan interests until the end of September and helps expand unemployment benefits by giving individuals an extra $600.00\/week for the first month of enacting.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Given that the average rent in Los Angeles is <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rentcafe.com\/average-rent-market-trends\/us\/ca\/los-angeles\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">$2,524<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, this stimulus check will not be remotely enough to cover the cost of living. This pales in comparison to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsweek.com\/heres-how-us-coronavirus-stimulus-package-compares-other-countries-around-world-1497360\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">other countries<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> around the globe, where Canada is paying its citizens $1,433 USD per month, South Korea is covering 70% of worker\u2019s salaries, Denmark 75%, the U.K 80%, and The Netherlands 90%. <\/span><b>Given the vast number of newly unemployed workers and the high cost of living in Los Angeles, it would only be logical for more action to be taken.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Rent Stabilization Ordinance (RSO) Rent Increase Freeze<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/hcidla2.lacity.org\/RSO-Overview\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Los Angeles Housing and Community Investment Department<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, a building is able to be<\/span><b> protected under the rent-stabilization program if it is an apartment that is built on or before October of 1978.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> This usually means that the rent can only be raised by a maximum of 4% every year. But with the advent of the COVID epidemic, many Los Angeles city residents, particularly lower-income tenants that make a disproportionate share of rent-stabilized apartments, are losing substantial income. On March 30th, 2020, Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti announced a freeze on rent-hikes on all 624,000 units of rent-stabilized apartments. Later the LA City Council had extended this measure to an entire year following the emergency.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>3. Evictions Moratorium<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>On March 16th, 2020, California Governor Gavin Newsome issued executive order N-28-20, banning the enforcement of eviction orders on renters, with certain specifications<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The tenants are required to leave a written notice no more than 7 days before rent is due that they are unable to pay the rent. Eligible reasons for the inability to pay include lost wages due to the Coronavirus epidemic, becoming ill with the Coronavirus, or being forced to take care of someone ill with the coronavirus.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Sensing that complications could arise from having to provide a written notice, <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Los Angeles County issued an ordinance on March 19th to expand the ruling to all residential and commercial developments in unincorporated Los Angeles County. On April 14th, this ordinance was expanded to all jurisdictions in the county unless they already have adopted their own moratorium. In early May, these were <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/therealdeal.com\/la\/2020\/05\/13\/county-extends-eviction-moratorium-through-june-30-but-makes-no-promises-beyond-that\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">extended to the end of June<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. What comes after is still up for legislators to decide. <\/span><b>Other components<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> of this ordinance include a ban on <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/hcidla.lacity.org\/Eviction-Tenant-is-Not-At-Fault-Renters\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">no-fault evictions<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (an action where landlords can terminate a tenant\u2019s lease for any arbitrary reason even if they paid rent on time and acted without a problem) and Ellis Act evictions for two months until after the emergency ends (where a landlord may wish to tear down a rent-controlled building to place it off the rental market). Although temporary, these measures will afford extra protection to renters.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">____________________________________________________________________________<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With these pieces of legislation, Los Angeles renters will be able to have at least some form of assistance for weathering the pandemic. Although the federal stimulus is too light and the rent stabilization ordinance and evictions moratorium is only temporary, at least some action is being taken. <\/span><b>Moving forward, more protective actions will need to be taken to ensure that all residents of Los Angeles will be able to not only survive the pandemic but thrive afterward.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-4017\" src=\"https:\/\/abundanthousingla.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/COVID-resources-1-300x157.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"386\" height=\"202\" srcset=\"https:\/\/abundanthousingla.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/COVID-resources-1-300x157.png 300w, https:\/\/abundanthousingla.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/COVID-resources-1-600x314.png 600w, https:\/\/abundanthousingla.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/COVID-resources-1-768x402.png 768w, https:\/\/abundanthousingla.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/COVID-resources-1-1024x536.png 1024w, https:\/\/abundanthousingla.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/COVID-resources-1-1080x565.png 1080w, https:\/\/abundanthousingla.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/COVID-resources-1.png 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 386px) 100vw, 386px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Very few individuals could have foreseen the COVID epidemic.
