You blame the govenor for the Supreme Court ruling?
Nobody's forcing Newsom to embrace the ruling.
The growing homeless problem is forcing him to embrace the ruling. Why would he ignore the problem?
“prioritizes removal of encampments that pose threats to life, health, and safety, while partnering with local governments and nonprofit providers to facilitate offers of shelter and supportive services in advance of removal.””
Before the 9th circuit stopped it, homeless sweeps were wholeheartedly embraced as the de facto solution. Somehow, over forty years of homeless sweeps, it doesn't seem to have solved the problem.
It's because encampment sweeps aren't a fix, it's just blasting money out of the government's ass to temporarily wallpaper over the problem and make life harder on the people who've been brought lowest in our society. He would be wise to remain on the path of housing reform and other reforms that California was starting to embrace when it didn't have any other choice, that is, if he actually intends to fix the problem.
