<div>Arbol de Hierro is a tenant association of the Los Angeles Tenants Union (LATU) that represents eight immigrant families from Oaxaca who are facing an unjust Ellis Act eviction in Mar Vista. The association’s name, which translates to “Iron Tree” in English, was chosen to symbolize the strong roots that the families have grown after living in their units for 30+ years.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>In December of 2024, tenants received notice of their new landlord’s intention to use the Ellis Act to evict them from their homes. The Ellis Act is a California state law that landlords use to displace long-term rent-stabilized tenants from their homes, provided that the landlord intends to remove the property from the housing market. In reality, landlords buy rent-stabilized buildings and then use the Ellis Act to flip the property and earn a greater profit. This greedy landlord’s actions threaten to displace the vibrant Oaxacan community that has been a part of West LA for decades.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>The Arbol de Hierro tenants’ one-year extension of tenancy expired in December of 2025, and they now face a court battle to defend their homes. Many of the tenants have small children and disabled or elderly family members who have established local support networks. They cannot afford to stay in Los Angeles if they are displaced from their units, and now they are asking for community support in raising funds for legal fees. They are grateful for donations of any amount and for your support in protecting the Oaxacan community of Los Angeles.</strong>
</div>

</div>
<div>Money raised by this fundraiser will go towards legal costs. Read more about the Árbol tenants´ story.
</div>

</div>
<div>Any funds in excess of our fundraiser goal will go towards supporting the work of the Mar Vista Palms local of LATU.

<div>Árbol de Hierro es una asociación de inquilinos del Sindicato de Inquilinos de Los Ángeles (SILA o LATU) que representa a ocho familias inmigrantes de Oaxaca que se enfrentan a un desalojo injusto en virtud de la Ley Ellis en Mar Vista. El nombre de la asociación, que se traduce como Iron Tree en inglés, fue elegido para simbolizar las fuertes raíces que las familias han desarrollado después de vivir en sus viviendas durante más de 30 años.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>En diciembre de 2024, los inquilinos recibieron una notificación de la intención de su nuevo propietario de utilizar la Ley Ellis para desalojarlos de sus viviendas. La Ley Ellis es una ley del estado de California que los dueños utilizan para desalojar de sus viviendas a los inquilinos con alquiler estabilizado a largo plazo, a condición de que el propietario tenga la intención de retirar la propiedad del mercado inmobiliario. En realidad, los dueños compran edificios con alquiler estabilizado y luego utilizan la Ley Ellis para revender la propiedad y ganar más lucro. Las acciones de este codicioso propietario amenazan a desplazar a la comunidad oaxaqueña que ha formado parte del oeste de Los Ángeles por décadas.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>La extensión de su tenencia de un año de los inquilinos Árbol de Hierro expiró en diciembre de 2025, y ahora se enfrentan a una batalla judicial para defender sus hogares. Muchos de los inquilinos tienen hijos pequeños y familiares discapacitados o ancianos que han establecido redes de apoyo locales. No podrían quedarse en Los Ángeles si son desalojados de sus viviendas, y ahora están pidiendo el apoyo de la comunidad para recaudar fondos para los gastos legales. Cualquier donación es bienvenida, y les agradecemos por su apoyo en defender a la comunidad oaxaqueña de Los Ángeles. </strong>

</div>
<div>El dinero que es recaudado por está página será utilizado para gastos legales. Lee más sobre la historia de los inquilinos de Árbol de Hierro aquí.

<div><br />
</div>
<div>Cualquier fondo que supere nuestro objetivo de recaudación se destinará a apoyar el trabajo de la sección local de Mar Vista Palms de LATU.
