    #Trump pledged to house 6,000 #HomelessVets. His budget funds zero

    NPR | By Quil Lawrence
    Published May 28, 2026

    Excerpt: "Vets' housing construction and delays on the campus go back through four presidential administrations. LA veterans groups won two lawsuits in the past 15 years mandating that the VA immediately build more housing on the campus. The Biden administration appealed a 2024 court ruling and lost. So it shocked veterans groups when the Trump administration appealed that ruling again in February, despite having declared its own intention to build. And when the proposed budget finally came out in April, it included zero dollars to build new housing for any of the 6,000 veterans the president had promised."

  38. #Trump is pushing to institutionalize #homeless people. That may include #veterans

    by Quil Lawrence, June 25, 2026

    Excerpt: "More than 30,000 U.S. military veterans are homeless, according to the latest government data from an annual one-night 'point in time count.' That number is down significantly in the past decade, which most experts credit to a straightforward combination of robust funding and a philosophy focused on offering housing without prerequisites, called housing first.

    "While the Trump administration has promised new housing for vets, President Trump also signed an executive order last year titled 'Ending Crime and Disorder on America's Streets,' which leans heavily toward institutionalizing #HomelessPeople against their will. This winter, NPR obtained slides describing a proposed #VeteransAdministration plan called '#SafeHarbor,' which would include veterans in that shift to involuntary treatment. Then, in March, the VA put out a memorandum of understanding with the Justice Department about state court guardianship for veterans." [!!!]
