Lefty activist group thats sued LA, hates cops and wealth generation to be handed $6.6 million by City
A powerful committee chaired by socialist wannabe LA mayor Nithya Raman has voted to hand over $6.6 million to a radical activist group that’s previously sued the City. Los Angeles City Council’s Housing and Homeless Committee greenlit more than $177 million in homeless spending contracts – including the fresh multi-million-dollar payday for Strategic Actions for a Just Economy, better known as SAJE.They want the LAPD abolished, the 2028 Olympics to be cancelled and to freeze rent.The $6.6 million in funding given to the SAJE comes despite the group having sued the City of Los Angeles over approvals for a luxury hotel project on public land, which lead to closed-door settlement talks in 2023.California Post News: Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, X, YouTube, WhatsApp, LinkedInCalifornia Post Sports Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, XCalifornia Post Opinion California Post Newsletters: Sign up here!California Post App: Download here!Home delivery: Sign up here!Page Six Hollywood: Sign up here!The vote also comes after The California Post revealed a similarly aligned agenda of the Democratic Socialist’s of America, who support Raman, and want to seize private property, take control of local supermarkets and shut down jails.The SAJE will use the money to fund “Protection from Tenant Harassment” outreach and education under the city’s Right to Counsel program and the voter-approved United to House LA homelessness prevention initiative.Money to fund the payout comes largely from the voter-approved “mansion tax” on property sales over $5 million.Supporters claim the money will unleash billions in affordable housing construction and homelessness prevention.However, instead of cranes in the sky building new units, much of the revenue has so far gone to administrative overheads such as staffing bureaucracies, hiring consultants, and paying for lawyers to challenge the tax.
