2 Narration/Voice: There are hundreds of men

and women and children who are without
housing due to the lack of space. So therefore
most are struggling to live day by day while
they are on the section 8 wait list. We are
afraid this problem will become worse with
 Trumps 6 billion dollar social service budget
cut. Which in sooner time it will reduce any
chance of these poor folks of getting a house
anytime soon.Decrease in funding to the U.S
Department of housing and urban
development (HUD). It will also potentially
eliminate the community development block
grant program which helps revitalize
neighborhoods and provide people in need
with rental assistance vouchers.

His plan includes to also eliminate funds for

section 4 capacity building for community
development and affordable housing.

6 Narration/Voice: Los Angeles is already

considering the Affordable Housing Linkage
Fee. A progressive tax. Which would be a
new ordinance to tax certain types of new
residential and commercial construction
across the city in order to fund a generation of
new affordable housing units. City Council
already proposes to levy a linkage fee of
$5.00 per square foot of new office , hotel ,
retail, or warehouse projects. Including $12.00
per square foot fee on new residential
construction . The fee will be administered by
the City of Los Angeles and will be expected
to generate between $75 million to $92 million
in funds each year to help build affordable
housing units.
