The homelessness crisis in Los Angeles County is a moral failing and a crisis that requires an “all hands on deck” approach. We must address rising rents, short-term rentals, and the lack of affordable housing. I will oppose efforts to criminalize homelessness and will support more resources for mental health services and substance abuse support. I support the state incentivizing new home building, public and social housing, and rent control. I support stronger tenant protections including eviction protections.
