LOS ANGELES (CBSLA) — There is a new effort to help ease the homeless crisis in Southern California.

Congresswoman Maxine Waters hosted a hearing in Exposition Park Wednesday to take a closer look at homelessness in Los Angeles and try to find a solution.

Democratic members of Congress heard testimony about the homeless crisis and explored the question, “What can the federal government do to help?”

“The federal government has been missing in action,” said Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti.
