Los Angeles – Tomorrow, the LA Board of Supervisors will vote on a motion to stop the contract, with the City of Taft, to house 512 Los Angeles County residents 120 miles away from LA. The motion was presented by Supervisor Gloria Molina after she stated last week, “I am now interested in removing my support for the Taft agreement. It doesn’t seem that this came prepared and ready for us to deal with. There are so many unanswered questions. I just think it’s really unfortunate that many of us were led to believe that this was ready to move forward. There are many legal entanglements, that Taft is not ready to move forward on.”
