Some believe Measure H helps renters and will help tackle homelessness while others think it will make the housing situation worse.
Tackling homelessness and providing protection for renters are two issues that are at the heart of Measure H, a measure that will be on the ballot in Los Angeles County next week."It's like a sinking ship," said Ryan Bell, a campaign organizer for Measure H. "We're bailing water as fast as we can but the boat's tackling on water faster than we can bail it, and that's kind of the picture I use for what homelessness is like in L.A. county.
"Rents are going through the roof in Pasadena, 10%, 15% for many residents here, and evictions are happening that are not the fault of the tenant," said Bell. "They are receiving these no fault evictions and Measure H would create some fairness in the system.""I thought they just can't evict me for no cause, and I started looking it up and I found out they could evict me, just like they were doing," he said.
