During Gavin Newsom Government A crisis of homelessnessS

Most of all, Newsom accused local officials of not clearing their streets from poor camps while complaining that partial budget loans for the state make it impossible to create effective current programs.

With Newsom and state legislators in the final blurring of the creation of a new state budget and facing chronic gaps between income and outputThe verbal exchange between the governor and the local formality became more structural and the differences between the district and the city officials became more obvious.

Although homelessness is largely found in cities, especially major cities, the district governments operate most of the medical and social programs to combat the syndrome, leading to conflicts over which local authorities should be responsible.

The department among local authorities is a problem across the country, but is most obvious in Los Angeles County, where A joint agency for the homelessness of the city is dismantled Against the backdrop of acute criticism of his failures.

When he revealed his Last version of the budget This month, Newsom has promised to increase pressure on locals by introducing new processes of state accountability and conditioning for identifiable results. He also proposed a model ordinance that he said local authorities could use to clear the camps.

“No one in our nation should be without a place to call home. As we continue to support our communities in addressing homelessness, we expect quick results, not excuses,” Newsom says in a statement. “Although we are pleased with the progress that many communities have achieved to deal with the crisis of homelessness, there is more work.”

The county staff responded divinely, repeating their position this year from the year from the state, undermined their efforts. They suggested five -year experimentCalled at a home where many years of funding will be guaranteed in counties that jointly outline responsibilities for specific programs among local authorities.

The State Association of County California also released an analysis of Nearly $ 30 billion in government spending Regarding the home and homelessness during the Newsom manager, which is said to have failed to be effective.

“For years, the state has been throwing lump sums on this problem without a real strategy,” says Jeff Griffiths, head of Inio County and President of the Association in a statement. “Our home proposal is reliable, comprehensive and directly refers to the state -imposed barriers before a decrease in homelessness. It is time to act.”

The Coalition of Mayors of the Big City accepted a more primary response to the last threat of Newsom’s repression, posting a “accountability update” to emphasize what was successful to use the annual state subsidies and asked Newsom and lawmakers to renew them.

“I saw firsthand how our cities use (homeless) means effectively to deal with homelessness,” said the chairman of the coalition, Riverside Mayor Patricia Locke Dawson. “In Riverside, we have reached a functional zero for the homelessness of youth – ensuring that every young person aged 18 to 24 has a path off the street.

“With 94 permanent supporting units in the vulnerable population pipeline such as veterans and disabled persons, we know that real progress is possible.

The guilt play will probably escalate, even when homelessness continues to intensify, the voice public becomes more stripped and the Newsom manager enters its last stage.

When the history of the crisis of homelessness in California is written, who will be responsible for a possible result, positive or negative?
