Supervisor Barger Opposes Two Motions For ‘Guaranteed Income’
Supervisor Kathryn Barger, who represents Los Angeles County’s Fifth District, which includes Santa Clarita, opposed two motions Tuesday that would allow for “guaranteed income.”
During the Board of Supervisors meeting Tuesday Barger voted against a motion authored by Supervisors Holly Mitchell and Sheila Kuehlt that passed which is set to pay $1,000 a month to 1,000 of the most vulnerable residents in L.A. County, according to the motions.
“I am deeply concerned about the motions approved by the Board of Supervisors today to guarantee a basic income for an unspecified group of individuals over a period of at least three years,” Barger said. “Implementation of ‘Guaranteed Basic Income’ has yet to be fully researched and vetted in a jurisdiction comparable to ours.”

A growing number of health experts vaccinated against COVID-19 said they’d keep their masks on in public settings as federal officials acknowledged that new relaxed mask recommendations issued by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention needed clarification.
The comments underscore a growing pushback in some quarters over the CDC’s surprise decision to roll back mask recommendations last week. Some retailers said they were keeping mask requirements, while others, including Trader Joe’s and Walmart, lifted them, with some chains clarifying the relaxation applied ONLY in states and local areas that already have relatively loose mask rules.
