    He’s running on “offer a bed first, then you get penalized if you don’t accept the offer.” A lot of people in CA like the idea of offering help, then penalizing if you refuse to accept it.

    Problem is, people don’t understand why the big cities have so many unfilled beds. Many shelters are dangerous and or cause you to lose your belongings.

        Honestly, having politicians spend a week in the county’s worst rated shelter would probably be a great thing for voters to demand.

          The key though would be they can’t at all tell people who they are and the people running the shelters can not be told in advanced who that individual is and when they will be dropped off.
