California voters approve measure requiring counties to address homelessness crisis
thehill.com/homenews/state-watch/4546832-california-voters-approve-measure-requiring-counties-to-address-homelessness-crisis/
Quick Glance: California Voters Approve Measure to Combat Homelessness
- California voters have approved measures that mandate counties to allocate funds for housing and drug rehabilitation programs to address the homelessness crisis.
- Governor Gavin Newsom, a Democrat, successfully advocated for the measure, which represents an update to the state's health system and required significant financial backing.
- The measure gives the state more control over a voter-approved tax enacted in 2004 for mental health services and obligates counties to spend about two-thirds of the funds on housing and programs for homeless individuals with severe mental illnesses or substance abuse issues.
- Opponents argued that the change jeopardizes programs not solely focused on housing or drug rehabilitation, but on preventing individuals from becoming homeless in the first place.
