2028 LA Olympics Under Pressure: What You Need to Know About Legal Risks and Safety

Historical Disruptions to the Olympics: Natural Disasters and Delays

Throughout history, there have been numerous instances where natural disasters and construction delays have disrupted the Olympics during the planning process. In 1932, the Olympics were threatened by the Great Depression. Moreover, the 2021 Tokyo Games took place amid a raging pandemic. The 2028 Los Angeles Olympics are no different.

Los Angeles 2028: Preparing for the Future Amidst Crisis

Los Angeles is less than three years away from hosting the 2028 Olympic Games. The city has suffered significantly in recent years, from wildfires to immigration raids, but preparations for the 2028 Olympic Games continue to progress. Legally, Los Angeles cannot back out of hosting the 2028 Olympics because a Host City Contract (HCC) has been signed. This legally binding agreement ensures that the city must fulfill its responsibilities, regardless of the challenges it may face in the years leading up to the games.

Concerns Over Immigration and Wildfires: Public Fears about 2028

The ongoing concerns regarding immigration and wildfires in Los Angeles have led many to question whether hosting the 2028 games is a good idea. As individuals in the United States, it is essential to be aware of your rights and the steps to take if you experience injuries or encounter immigration issues. If you experience problems with immigration policies, below is a list of steps to take to ensure your safety: 

  • Create a safety plan
  • Defend your rights
  • Don’t lie about your immigration status
  • Stay calm and don’t flee the scene

 When dealing with wildfires, it is essential to understand the precautions to take to maintain a safe environment around you. 

  • Look out for hotspots
  • Inspect the exterior of your home
  • Search the attic for any sparks

These issues have made many question whether the city is prepared for such a monumental event as the Olympic Games. 

Injury During Travel: Understanding the Risks and Your Rights

It is crucial to be aware of and understand the risks that come with traveling, especially abroad. Accidents can occur during transportation, at hotels, or tourist destinations. Travelers’ rights in the United States are governed by both federal and state laws to ensure the safety of victims and hold others accountable for their actions. The following are essential measures you should take when a victim sustains travel injuries:

  • Document the scene adequately
  • Photograph and video the incident area, physical injuries, and property damage
  • Seek medical attention
  • Report the incident to the authorities
  • Acquire witness statements
  • Gather contact information from witnesses

It is crucial to seek legal support when you are a victim of injury while traveling. A personal injury lawyer can assist you in understanding the correct measures to take, alongside making you aware of your rights as an individual.
