WATCH LIVE: LA Mayor Karen Bass declares a state of emergency on the city's homeless crisis

. Her goals also included ending street encampments, reducing homelessness and focusing on mental health and substance abuse services.

"Today too many Angelenos have no choice but to crowd multiple families into one home and to work multiple jobs just to barely pay rent," Bass said. "… When a parent is hospitalized, when a job is lost, when the rent can no longer be paid, this is how and why so many Angelenos wind up losing their housing. When life is hard for some Angelenos it affects all Angelenos.

This was yesterday? Did we get it done it’s not noon yet!!

GDLA Democrats have destroyed our once Blue ribbon public education ranked 1 when they seized power in the state now we rank 44 but GDLA never says a word about it?

GDLA Stop covering for our corrupt politicians. Karen Bass couldn't be bothered to get the homeless a mobile shower units when I lived in her district. Too busy taking pics with George Floyd's dead body. Call them out corrupt politicians are destroying Los Angeles.

Wow…this Karen is wasting no time in filling her pockets..are you going to start with the millions or are you going straight to the billions?

Put your money where your mouth is!

Here we go tax papers to the rescue

What make you think she can do something about homelessness when she could not do shit in DC LA an joke now

Garcetti, City Council, BOS didn’t like former Sheriff Villanueva clearing out encampments, why do people think she will. Day one, she should have crews & police clearing out encampments, cleaning up trash, etc. We don’t need more useless babble we need more direct action!

Big noise, no action…

Yah every DEMOCRAP open your houses and let them in, and stop opening our wallets to fill your hot air of BLAH BLAH BLAH speech’s. You created this mess, you open your doors to ease their suffering. I’m not!

do something! we already know homeless is beyond state of emergency!

She’s stealing the playbook of Rick Caruso

Gotta love a career politician getting credit for declaring an emergency over a city she’s overseen for decades

Didn’t vote for the woman but I’m remaining cautiously optimistic.

And nothing will change except for her ability to funnel money to no bid contracts, while addicts and mentally ill rot on the streets.

Lol!!! Already on the hunt to bleed the cares act dry.
