LA Passed 41.18 therefore criminalizing #Homelness & being unhoused. This madness has to -STOP-. I been silently pondering on how to address this matter. The conclusion? 🧵#homesnotzones #4118 #SeizeTheHotels #HomelessLivesMatter
I've come to the idea of forming 'Coalition for Change'.

To make a nonprofit that is not influenced by politics, is not under the control of the City/County or State. That isn't LAHSA & will never be like LAHSA. #homesnotzones #4118 #SeizeTheHotels #HomelessLivesMatter
This means the nonprofit it's self has to be 100% publicly funded, not by any money from any form of government. To be funded by the public & directly from the public. H & HHH are the failed examples of why this is needed. #homesnotzones #4118 #SeizeTheHotels #HomelessLivesMatter
The State of California has failed. The City & County as well of #LA. They wasted BILLIONS. At 70k per unit (unit being the form of measurement for either a family or individual) #homesnotzones #4118 #SeizeTheHotels #HomelessLivesMatter
Out of that 12B @GavinNewsom signed off on, after wasting 116.5 million. It would only cost to help 'Units' for two or three years at 70k to cover rent. ENOUGH time to stabilize. Only cost 4.6B for 66k Units. #homesnotzones #4118 #SeizeTheHotels #HomelessLivesMatter
Leaving the remaining balance of 7.4B out of 12B for Mental Health & Job Training/Legal Services if need be to remove any other road blocks. #homesnotzones #4118 #SeizeTheHotels #HomelessLivesMatter
No Matter what SPA you are in: LA County WILL NOT HELP YOU MOVE OUTSIDE OF THE COUNTY OR STATE WHERE COST OF LIVING IS CHEAPER. Creating yet another roadblock to housing if you just need a little lift. #homesnotzones #4118 #SeizeTheHotels #HomelessLivesMatter
To Address these matters. Coalition for Change would need the public support to end this.. nonsense. I would lead the org to be transparent, monthly public reports on spending, timelines of goals & funding requirements. #homesnotzones #4118 #SeizeTheHotels #HomelessLivesMatter
If it happens that a goal is not going to be met on time. A public notice would be posted explaining why & what funding roadblocks we would be encountering to not keep schedule. #homesnotzones #4118 #SeizeTheHotels #HomelessLivesMatter
I speak as a homeless resident & as somebody who has seen & experienced enough & whom has had enough and has grown sick & tired of the lack of the common sense in the leadership within the state & beyond. #homesnotzones #4118 #SeizeTheHotels #HomelessLivesMatter
Even now, the income i do make from streaming on Twitch, ad Revenue i make on YouTube goes back being donated towards charity & i use video games to help raise money for other charities. #homesnotzones #4118 #SeizeTheHotels #HomelessLivesMatter
As one person. My devotion is clear. Getting Public support to make this dream a reality would be really nice. To have a org that is better than LAHSA should be a easy standard. However i cannot do this alone. #homesnotzones #4118 #SeizeTheHotels #HomelessLivesMatter
I think i have done everything within my limits. I have contacted USICH, HUD, have gotten my emails forwarded from a Congresswoman office to USICH & HUD. I've reached out the County Supervisors & CM with no answers. #homesnotzones #4118 #SeizeTheHotels #HomelessLivesMatter
I have started selling a t-shirt on TeeSpring to have those profits go towards charity. I have done just about everything one person can do within my capabilities. #homesnotzones #4118 #SeizeTheHotels #HomelessLivesMatter
All that is left is to start a new Org & stop sitting around & waiting for answers or waiting for someone else to do the thing & instead do it myself. #homesnotzones #4118 #SeizeTheHotels #HomelessLivesMatter

Let me make something clear: 🧵

By sharing the video i posted. I agree with the sentiment. Meaning the attitude toward a situation.

I PERSONALLY don't believe in faith based support because I am non religious: meaning not relating to or believing in a religion.
My faith goes as far as: something put us here, if you want to call it 'xyz'. Then that is on you. I don't want to be wrong in the end.

I believe there is something greater than us as the human race.
There is OPINIONS that Andy has shared that i do not 100% support but i don't speak against it because he is on a different path from mine. So whom am i to say how he should drive in his lane when i am in my own lane.

LAHSA doing lip service. So yes join LAHSA meeting and ask how & why they're failing so hard.

Why is Heidi meeting with celebs instead of the homeless?

Why did the audit show LAHSA way under performing?

#SeizeTheHotels #HomelessLivesMatter
EVEN L.A. City Council wants out of the deal with the County because LAHSA was supposed to be a joint power between City & County. #SeizeTheHotels #HomelessLivesMatter
