LOS ANGELES—Los Angeles Councilman Kevin de León was served with a recall notice on May 10, filed by the same constituent who targeted him with a recall effort last year before terminating the petition in November 2021.
The notice to recall was filed by Pauline Adkins, who posted a photo of the notice on Facebook, saying that “the homeless population has gotten worse since de León took office” in 2020. The population of homeless residents throughout Los Angeles is widely believed to have grown during the COVID-19 pandemic, but the results of the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority’s 2022 count have not yet been released.
