Clearing encampments and reducing homelessness is not rocket science. We need to enforce the law and treat the root cause homelessness which is drug addiction and mental health. The only reason we have this problem in LA is due to corruption and politics as usual!

Homelessness is not a business. Mental illness is not a business. Addiction is not a business. The grift ends when I’m mayor, and we will enforce the law.

The homelessness crisis in California is unacceptable and cruel! Commonsense change is what we need to solve it—enforce the law and get people the help they need!

Housing Secretary Scott Turner proudly announces their first Tiny Community for the homeless opening This community will not just be about providing housing but making sure everyone here is mandatory treated for mental illness and drug addiction “They are transforming the way we look and the way we approach homelessness, not just with housing, but to provide wraparound services and to know what the root cause of homelessness is, mental illness, drug addiction, and so forth — Yes, we want to house them, but we also want to treat them with wraparound services to help them to be transformed, to live a life of self-sustainability.”

NBC LOS ANGELES DEBATE: The Democrats on stage agree that homelessness in California is out of control, but they REFUSE to acknowledge they caused the problem! We need to vote differently if we want change, and we must enforce the law.

Homelessness skyrocketed under Biden, and Housing First failed our most vulnerable Americans. HUD is focused on addressing the root causes of homelessness, like alcoholism, drug addiction, and mental illness, by providing the wrap-around services needed.

We have fundamentally changed the way we confront homelessness in LA. L.A. saw the first decline in homelessness in many years and an unprecedented drop in street homelessness. This is about more than numbers. This is about transforming lives and restoring communities.

California spent $24 billion that vanished while we have the highest homelessness in America—my plan is simple: enforce the law, get people into real treatment, and restore mental health care instead of funding the homeless industrial complex. Enough is Enough ☀️👊

Nothing changes if nothing changes. To solve California’s homelessness problem, we MUST enforce the law while getting people the help they need.

No other state in America is making the investments California is to tackle homelessness, housing, mental health, and substance use. And we’re now seeing results!

The County just doesn’t get it. Homelessness won’t be solved with temporary parking lots. It won’t be solved by throwing people into hotels. The real solution is tackling the root causes: drug and alcohol addiction and untreated mental illness. Until we address those, nothing will change.

Never richer as a country yet we have record homelessness. Successive Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael Governments have utterly failed and their policies have created this shameful level of homelessness. Homelessness is not inevitable and with different policies we can end it.

The Dirty Little Secret About Homelessness Is Also The Key To Ending It The US Supreme Court recently heard oral arguments about what cities can and cannot do to end homelessness. "What if there is a bed available in the Gospel Rescue Mission, but Ms. Johnson, a person, doesn't want it? Doesn’t wish to leave their pet. Her Rottweiler's not permitted there. So that is a difficult question for a person and a difficult policy question..." What everyone agreed on was that homelessness is a difficult problem. "Many people have mentioned this is a serious policy problem… So, the policy questions in this case are very difficult….Martin speaks in terms of someone who is involuntarily homeless and that raises all of those policy questions… We usually think about whether state law, local law already achieves those purposes so that the federal courts aren't micromanaging homeless policy…" I think most people listening to the Supreme Court would agree: it isn’t going to solve homelessness. That is a job for state legislators. So why haven’t they? Why has homelessness gotten worse? The answer that many homeless advocates give is that it’s because we don’t have enough homes, and poverty has increased. But neither is true. Poverty has steadily declined since the 1980s, when homelessness first became an issue of public concern. And very few people are on the street simply because they can’t afford the rent. The evidence is overwhelming that the majority of people on the street are there because of untreated mental illness or addiction, which leads people to use all their money to support their drug habit and be high, rather than work. People who can’t afford the rent but are able to work and aren’t in the grip of addiction or untreated mental illness find a cheaper place to live, move somewhere cheaper, or live with family and friends. It’s true there aren’t enough shelter beds, case workers, group homes, and psychiatric hospitals to care for the homeless. But a big part of the reason for that is that advocates for the homeless have, for 40 years, demanded that funding for dealing with the homeless go into giving people private studio apartments rather than building sufficient shelter beds. They call this “Housing First,” and its record is awful. Few stay in housing, and many die because it fails to treat the cause of the problem, addiction, and untreated mental illness rather than the symptoms. Studies find that cities that prioritize basic shelter over expensive housing reduce the deaths of homeless by 3-fold. And so in LA, homeless die at a rate 3 times higher than New York because living inside protects people from murder, drug overdose, and car accidents. Making matters worse, homeless advocates, along with the ACLU, have opposed expanding psychiatric hospitals, and mandatory care in general, because they believe it’s worse to mandate hospitalization for people who are dangerously psychotic or manic than to simply leave them on the street. But it’s not. Last year, 112,000 Americans died from drug overdose and poisoning because we failed to mandate treatment. Two of my friends from high school would still be alive today had we mandated they get treatment for addiction rather than letting them die. What is happening on homelessness is a record of failure. The number of drug deaths quintupled from 20,000 in 2022 to 112,000 last year. That’s more people dying per year than died in Hiroshima. Homelessness is not a fundamental problem of housing. It’s a problem of enabling addiction and untreated mental illness, both of which lead people to give up on work, lie, steal, cheat their families and friends, and live on the street, where they turn to petty crime to sustain their drug habits. This seems cruel to many people, which is why homelessness has gotten worse. In other words, the reason homelessness has gotten worse is because we’ve enabled it, and subsidized it, rather than funded treatment and recovery. Nobody has subsidized homelessness more than California, Washington, and Oregon. And it’s been in those states that homelessness has worsened the most. Why? The homelessness groups really believe it’s more cruel to mandate care than to let people die on the streets. But there is an ideology behind this, too. It’s the idea that people suffering from addiction and mental illness are victims of society or the system, which is fundamentally evil. And, according to their logic, to restore justice in the world, we must give victims whatever they want, including the right to camp anywhere and use hard drugs, even if it results in their death. You might call this "pathological altruism. Think of the Kathy Bates character in Misery. Or of the mother who poisons her child in order to have a sick person to take care of, like in “Sixth Sense.” It’s no coincidence that the same people who believe this also think civilization is evil and should be replaced by something more akin to primitive anarchism, like the kind romanticized by intellectuals since Rousseau. The alternative to this dystopia is tough love. We need to give people the care they need, but that’s not through enabling addiction and illegal behavior, but rather enforcing laws and mandating care, as an alternative to jail, when they are broken. It’s not enough to do what many Republicans want to do, which is to enforce laws and recriminalize shoplifting and hard drugs simply. We need to do that, for sure. But states must also have caseworkers, group homes, and psychiatric hospitals so there is an alternative to jail, and so states can provide people with the specialized care where it’s available, which simply isn’t going to be in many of the small towns, like the one at the center of the Supreme Court hearing. The dirty little secret about homelessness, which is also the key to ending it, is...

Poverty is the underlying cause of homelessness, say the mainstream media. But it's not. Poverty has declined steadily for decades as homelessness got worse. And people priced out of their housing for reasons unrelated to addiction or untreated mental illness find another place to live. They don't pitch a tent on the dirtiest and most dangerous sidewalks in America. The reason the problem grew so much worse is that a handful of well-financed ideological activists persuaded cities and states to incentivize homelessness through unconditional cash payments, promises of unconditional free housing, and the decriminalization of shoplifting and open-air drug dealing. Last week I released a short video on how progressive West Coast cities made homelessness worse. Now, I'm happy to release this hour-long video that goes through the evidence about the nature of the problem and how to solve it in great detail.

For years, San Francisco stopped enforcing the law in regards to homelessness. As a result, the city became a magnet. Now, we live with 8-20k homeless in our city and spend $2 billion annually on services combined. Build Shelter. Enforce the law. This is not controversial.

Gavin Newsom has failed in nearly every way imaginable, not the least of which is homelessness. To fix homelessness we must address addiction. We also have to end the taxpayer funded money laundering that comes from the NGOs receiving nearly unlimited funds to do nothing.
