Mayor Eric Garcetti Floats $1,000 Universal Basic Income, Making L.A. the 12th U.S. Location to Try
On 4/20/21 at 12:12 AM EDT
Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti has proposed giving a universal basic income of $1000 a month to 2,000 poor local families for one year. Similar proposals have been tried in at least 12 U.S. regions since 1968 and are also gaining interest among other U.S. mayors.
Garcetti s proposal would allocate $24 million of the city s budget towards a program called BIG LEAP, an acronym for Basic Income Guaranteed: L.A. Economic Assistance Pilot. The program would give 2,000 families below the federal poverty line monthly $1,000 checks for 12 months. The families could then spend the money however they please.

Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti offered his vision on Monday for helping the city emerge from the financial devastation of COVID-19, saying city leaders should commit to economic justice by pouring hundreds of millions of dollars into relief programs and ramping up initiatives that keep residents safe, employed and out of poverty.
In his annual State of the City address, Garcetti promised to spend nearly $1 billion on initiatives for addressing homelessness, as well as increased funding for gang intervention workers, sidewalk vending programs, arts activities and relief for businesses.
The mayor, appearing in front of a tiny audience next to the commanding views of Griffith Observatory, laid out plans for delivering $1,000 per month to 2,000 of the city’s neediest households over the next year, as part of a “basic guaranteed income” pilot program that he described as the biggest of any city in America.
