LA Goes DARK While Copper Thieves PARTY – Mayor Karen Bass’ ‘Solar Surrender’ Lets Criminals WIN

Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass has announced a plan to install up to 60,000 solar-powered street lights in the city, aiming to improve public safety, reduce repair backlogs, combat copper wire theft, and decrease reliance on fossil fuels. The initiative follows increasing complaints about broken streetlights and safety concerns, especially in areas like Pacoima. However, the city council is also considering increasing assessment fees on taxpayers to maintain streetlights, potentially generating $125 million. This fee hike, impacting homeowners across the city, has sparked debate. Is this solar plan just another tax grab from Los Angeles residents under the guise of safety and sustainability? We investigate Karen Bass's promises and the potential burden on homeowners.
