In a Surprise Move, Gov. Newsom Signs Executive Order to Remove Homeless Camps

Governor Gavin Newsom of California has taken a decisive step by ordering the removal of homeless encampments across the state. This move follows a recent Supreme Court ruling that granted local governments more authority to enforce anti-camping laws. In a video posted on X, Newsom highlighted the urgency of addressing this issue and committed $1 billion in "encampment resolution grants" to support cities and counties in these efforts. However, this controversial decision has sparked criticism from the more progressive members of his party, who accuse him of leaning into conservative rhetoric to appeal to moderates. The directive comes with mixed reactions as Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass noted a reduction in homelessness but did not directly address Newsom's order.
