LOS ANGELES — President Donald Trump began a California visit on Tuesday, saying he will do"something" about homelessness but offering no specifics beyond the mention of creating a task force.
Trump is expected to attend a fundraiser dinner in Beverly Hills on Tuesday at the home of real estate developer Geoffrey Palmer. In San Francisco Tuesday, Housing and Urban Development Secretary Ben Carson visited a housing project but rejected an invitation from Mayor London Breed, who wanted to push for increased federal funding for homeless services and affordable housing."What we really need to focus our attention on is how are we really going to solve this problem and not make it into a political football?" he said.
Garcetti pushed back on a Trump assertion in a July interview that homelessness was a phenomenon that began two years ago.
