“What can the federal government do to help?”
A fresh approach - not enough of someone else's loot.
I have known several people who worked with the “homeless” and even an employee who was making $50,000 per year who decided to go homeless. It is not (usually) an issue of money per se. It is drugs, alcohol and mental illness. There have been several experiments of just giving the homeless apartments with furniture and food. They sold the furniture and food for drugs and moved out. The employee I mentioned told people he intended to drink himself to death but he ran out of money before he died. I conclude that more money for Section 8 will make zero impact on the homeless problem.
Send a few million of the illegals in California home. (1) That will get rid of a lot of these homeless criminals, and (2) that will free up homes for real Americans who are homeless because they have been priced out of the market by multiple families of illegals sharing homes that should go to citizens or to legal residents.
Maxine waters creating a socialist utopia in her back yard that we the tax payers will pay for but far enough away that they cant be seen, heard or smelt
NO. CA created this mess. They need to fix it on their own.
Send all illegals home.
Open mental health “hospitals”.
Have well behaved, and non violent, prisoners clean up LA trash.
The Los Angeles government has been active in inaction.
No more federal funds to bail out California’s bad decisions!
Any homeless problem in LA is NOT a FEDGOV problem - it's an LA/CA problem.
Because the only reason the “homeless” are homeless is because they don’t have a home.
If the Left is truly concerned about the Environment and the plight of the poor, they would be forcing the "migrants" back to their home countries.
What COULD the federal government do to help California with their housing crisis...
Let’s see.. There’s something, almost at the tip of my tongue..
Wait, I’m getting it now.. A million... YES, there it is, deport a million illegal aliens which will immediately free up at least 400,000 residences.
Want even MORE homelessness? Why, create more Section 8 housing.
That won’t solve the problem. Taking money from those foolish enough to have a “job” and giving it to professional baby makers, will make the problem worse. The employed will not work as hard and the fertile street thugs will have more babies.
Liberal “solutions” always fail, and liberals always demand a strengthening of the laws that failed, leading to another failure, which prompts them to demand a strengthening ... (repeat until doomsday).
In this universe, if you don’t work - you don’t eat!
All attempts to circumvent lead to misery.
In other words, Trump and Alabama deplorable’s fault.
Why would we fix democrat sht and make them look good like a whore on welfare trying to appropriate admiration from her kids for managing to leech off of taxpayers?
This is insane. Where is the representation of the tax payer in this? There is none.

Easy solution.
Free hit of drugs per 5 rats caught or per 10 lb bag of feces.
Use their drug habit for something useful.
Drugs and mental illness account for 95% of the problem. Remove the vagrants to private treatment camps, funded by government. Pay bonuses based on successful results. Fully staffed by “tough love” Christian professionals. Lather, rinse, repeat.
They should. T^he people that are working or on pensions need to pay more taxes. Hell, some of them have as much as two dollars left after deductions from their checks when they get them. And last but not least, 99 cents out of every tax dollar ends up in the pockets or bank of a Democrat. That is why the Democrats prefer the sheep to be dumb versus intelligent. The sheep? Hell, the sheep enjoy being dumb. They happily follow the judas goat from the stock trailer straight into the slaughter house. Every time
