At least a dozen Trump administration officials are in Los Angeles to examine the homelessness crisis, a source of criticism from the president
Intensifying the focus on California and its homelessness crisis, at least a dozen Trump administration officials are in Los Angeles on a mission to better understand what’s playing out in the city and state on the issue.
“You take a look at what’s going on with San Francisco, it’s terrible. So we’re looking at it very seriously. We may intercede. We may do something to get that whole thing cleaned up. It’s inappropriate,” Trump told Fox News. Comisar confirmed that Garcetti staffers took the delegation to the city’s Unified Homelessness Response Center downtown. There were no meetings at City Hall with the delegation and no meetings with Garcetti himself, Comisar added.
“They’re just not thoughtful — and, quite frankly, not smart enough to know what we’re doing.” She added: “I hope that doesn’t get me in trouble.”This year’s count put the number of homeless people just shy of 59,000 countywide — a 12% increase from last year. Within the city of Los Angeles, the number soared to more than 36,000, a 16% increase.
Kvartuc said that the federal officials touring the Watts site included representatives of the departments of Veterans Affairs, Health and Human Services, HUD and Justice, the Environmental Protection Agency and the Domestic Policy Council.
