Asaad Alnajjar Pledges to Engineer a Stronger City When Elected LA City Mayor in 2026

Los Angeles Demands Leadership, Not Photo Ops

LOS ANGELES, CA, UNITED STATES, September 24, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Mayoral candidate Asaad Alnajjar is calling out what he describes as years of underperformance by the current administration. Los Angeles is mired in a housing crisis, budget shortfalls, and battered by natural disasters. According to Mr. Alnajjar the city needs a stronger leader who brings accountability and serious reforms.

“Karen Bass pledged bold action on homelessness, safer streets, and cleaner neighborhoods,” Asaad Alnajjar said. “After years of headlines and ribbon cuttings, the reality on our streets tells a different story, as tents still line sidewalks, neighborhoods remain unsafe, and taxpayers see little return on billions spent,” continued Alnajjar.

City Hall’s Shortcomings Under Bass
--Homelessness Unresolved: Despite record spending and new tax revenues under Measure ULA, thousands remain unsheltered with poor coordination between the City, County, and LAHSA.
--Budget Mismanagement: The city now faces a $1 billion deficit for 2025–26, forcing layoffs and service cuts all because City Hall failed to plan responsibly.
--Disaster Readiness Failures: The January 2025 Palisades wildfires exposed serious gaps in emergency planning. City Hall’s sluggish response left residents in bureaucratic limbo.
--Transit & Infrastructure Delays: With the 2028 Olympics on the horizon, long-promised transit upgrades remain unfinished.

How Asaad Alnajjar Will Bring A Different Kind of Leadership
Alnajjar pledges to:
--Resolve Homelessness by going to the roots of the issues facing families that are unhoused such as drug addiction/alcoholism, loss of income due to job loss, and providing housing at a reasonable costs to the city
--Fast-track affordable housing approvals and disaster rebuilding permits, cutting through bureaucracy.
--Reform and streamline city agencies to eliminate duplication by balancing the budget ensuring audits are completed and action is taken to reduce waste without sacrificing critical services.
--Strengthen wildfire prevention and disaster readiness with modernized systems and well planned effective community-based response plans.
Invest equitably in transit and infrastructure so all neighborhoods and not just downtown will see results and will be prepared for disasters, as well as the 2028 Olympics.
--Empower LA’s 99 Neighborhood Councils to bridge the gap to City Hall, giving communities a stronger, fearless voice.

“Los Angeles can’t afford another four years of photo ops, incompetence, and half-measures,” Alnajjar said. “We need immediate results not excuses. In 2026, voters of Los Angeles will be able to choose true leadership that will deliver results with accountability, not just a photo ops Mayor.”
Asaad Alnajjar announced his candidacy for mayor on March 1, 2025. The election for LA Mayor 2026 is slated for Tuesday, June 2, 2026. Vote for Asaad Alnajjar for LA City Mayor, he understands your concerns while delivering repairs and solutions.
