The resolution doesn't list how each supervisor voted; that's in the Statement of Proceedings for June 22, which isn't linked yet. Only about $13.0B of the County budget is local money the Board fully controls.

Supervisor Kathryn Barger, Jun 22, 2026 · Needs contextThe Board approved a $50.3 billion final budget unanimously.The adopted resolution's grand total is $56.5B because it counts every fund, including special districts. The $50.3B matches the County's budget charts. The unanimous vote isn't confirmed until the Statement of Proceedings is linked.Read the claim →
The law behind it
  • AB 218 (2019): Gave survivors of childhood sexual abuse more time to sue. Claims against the County followed, and the County has committed more than $4.8 billion to settlements. That money is not available for other County programs.
  • H.R. 1 (2025 federal budget law): The 2025 federal budget law cut federal support for Medicaid (Medi-Cal) and food benefits (CalFresh) and added work requirements. The County's health and social service budgets absorb much of the cut.

Why votes come from the official record

Each vote on this site comes from the government's own record: the City Clerk's Official Action form, which lists each Councilmember's vote; the County's Statement of Proceedings, which lists each Supervisor's vote; or the Mayor's signed directive. A vote is not published until that record is linked.

News stories and posts on X often report a vote first, but they summarize, round numbers and sometimes get the date or count wrong. Tally LA treats them as claims. Each is compared with the record and marked as matching it, needing context, or contradicted, with a note on what the record shows.

For example, news reports said the City budget passed 12-1 on May 21, 2026. The Official Action form Tally LA found is dated May 27 and shows 10-1, with four members absent. The two may describe different steps. The page notes this until a reviewer links the May 21 form.

Coverage

37 actions are published, from 2020 to the present. Tally LA's importers read Official Action forms and Statements of Proceedings and queue each vote for a person to check against the PDF before publication. 1 more is held for review because the official record is not linked yet.

Votes since 2020 number in the thousands. The County's Statements of Proceedings are online and are being loaded meeting by meeting. For the City, Tally LA has asked the City Clerk for a bulk export of Council votes since 2020, which would allow the backlog to load at once.
