Los Angeles Officials Challenge Newsom's Homeless Encampment Directive

Mayor Karen Bass and county supervisors argue for sustainable solutions over temporary fixes following Supreme Court ruling.

Gov. Gavin Newsom's executive order demands the dismantling of homeless encampments across California.
Los Angeles leaders, including Mayor Karen Bass, believe the order fails to address the root causes of homelessness.
The Supreme Court's recent decision grants local authorities more power to penalize public camping.
San Francisco Mayor London Breed supports the directive, planning aggressive enforcement starting in August.
Critics argue that without affordable housing and social services, the order will not solve homelessness.
