LOS ANGELES — Billionaire Rick Caruso has already put millions of dollars toward television ads, and is expected to vastly outspend his competitors in the Los Angeles mayor's race.
But supporters of Rep. Karen Bass have launched an independent expenditure committee to help the longtime officeholder compete with Caruso's wealth.
The newly formed committee reported raising nearly $270,000 in the last two weeks, according to disclosure forms filed with the City Ethics Commission. This group was incorporated last month and is called Communities United for Bass for LA Mayor 2022.
