Because a lot of local interests have figured out its costing them big. Nowhere more so than in SF.
It took a while.
Too little, too late, IMHO.
The irony here, is that homelessness and other social problems, have gotten much worse because of liberal policies.
Being liberal on homelessness, enabled homelessness to become such a huge problem in cities such as San Francisco.
So it’s ironic that a liberal such as Newsom, is battling against a court ruling issued by a liberal judge, isn’t it?
