Karen Bass: “Thank you, Mr. Chair.”

While the LAFD continues making progress, this is a major, multi-jurisdictional incident. I'm issuing an emergency declaration to ensure the City has the resources it needs as this operation continues and to keep the community safe.

I have devoted my entire life to serving the city that I love, where I was born, and I’m going to continue to do that all the way to victory in November.

Thanks to LA's super match program, every qualified donation from Los Angeles residents is matched 6-to-1 by the city.

I appreciate you for standing with me when others doubted me, because you know who I am.
