Billions meant to help homeless Californians have vanished while cities spiral into chaos. A federal task force just launched an investigation into $2 billion in missing homelessness funds after audits exposed shocking mismanagement. Taxpayers are footing the bill for empty promises as tent cities keep growing.
Audits revealed California can’t account for how it spent $24 billion on homelessness programs over five years. Los Angeles alone misdirected $300 million through a broken agency that couldn’t track basic expenses. Seventy percent of state homelessness funds sit unspent while families sleep on sidewalks.
State officials keep throwing money at the problem with zero results. Despite $37 billion spent since 2019, homelessness surged 24% statewide. Sacramento’s latest homeless sweep found only five out of fifty people accepted shelter offers – proving failed policies hurt everyone.
Assemblyman Josh Hoover blasted the waste, saying “California’s leadership cares more about looking woke than solving problems.” His district saw homelessness spike despite getting millions in aid. Federal investigators now subpoena records from seven counties amid allegations of slush funds and phantom contracts.
Governor Newsom wants another $100 million for homelessness programs even as cities drown in debt. San Francisco faces a $2 billion deficit while Oakland teeters near bankruptcy. Instead of fixing roads or schools, politicians fund illegal immigrant healthcare and vanity projects.
The homeless crisis fuels urban decay as parks become open-air drug markets. Businesses flee crime-ridden areas, taking jobs with them. Hardworking families pay higher taxes to clean streets officials let rot.
This isn’t just incompetence – it’s corruption. While bureaucrats collect six-figure salaries, outreach workers lack basic supplies. The task force found grant money buying luxury offices instead of tents or food. Californians deserve leaders who put people before politics.
The truth is clear: liberal policies destroyed America’s richest state. Until voters demand accountability, your tax dollars will keep vanishing into the swamp. It’s time to drain Sacramento and take our state back.
