President-elect Donald Trump has promised to arrest thousands of homeless people sleeping in American streets and move them to large tent cities on "inexpensive land," upending a national strategy that focuses on finding housing for those in need.
Homeless advocates are bracing for a battle against policies they deem inhumane, arguing that such actions undermine decades of efforts to remove stigma and provide humane solutions to homelessness.
Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass expresses willingness to collaborate with Trump on homelessness solutions, advocating for temporary shelters on federal property instead of tent cities.
Bass emphasizes the city’s lack of cheap land and suggests using shipping containers or modular units for stable housing, indicating her alignment with some of Trump’s proposals while prioritizing dignity for the homeless.
