| None of Gavin Newsom's 1,200 'Tiny Homes' Has Opened, a Year Later |
| 2024-05-25 |
| [Breitbart] California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) promised in 2023 to deliver 1,200 “tiny homes” to help shelter the homeless in several California cities — but none has opened yet, according to a report in CalMatters. CalMatters.org reported Thursday: In March 2023, Gov. Gavin Newsom stood before a crowd in Sacramento’s Cal Expo event center and made a promise: He’d send 1,200 tiny homes to shelter homeless residents in the capital city and three other places throughout the state. In Sacramento, at least, construction for the tiny homes has begun. In San Diego, testing of a proposed site is still under way. In San Jose, a grant from the state took months to arrive; the project will only be completed next summer. And in Los Angeles, there is no approved site yet. In 2021, Newsom boasted that California had become a model for dealing with homelessness, after the Biden administration adopted his state’s policy of paying for hotel and motel rooms for homeless people, or even buying hotels. Homelessness continues to be a problem in the Golden State. The homeless population has hit a ten-year low in San Francisco, but was still rising in Los Angeles, as of last year. The Wall Street Journal reported last year that California spends billions of dollars on homelessness, with little to show for the effort.

| #4 Imma justa put this outta on the table. Narcon is keeping the brain dead on life support. Was at a popular tourist destination and watched a young man just wilt and crumble on a well used path. The good people went into help mode, which is fine, but not realizing he was in the middle of having a fit, so instructed how to do moves with potential sharp pokey things in pockets. Sad. |

| #2 It'd be a lot easier and cheaper to put the homeless in tent cities out in the desert. Newsom would argue that's not compassionate. But how compassionate is it to let those people die from overdosing on the streets of LA and San Francisco? |
