It's an example of major cities taking on what really is a federal problem. NYC and LA run welfare programs using local tax dollars. This is so obviously a federal-level problem that requires a massive federal project to solve. Putting this burden on the local residents of LA, SF, NYC etc is incredibly unfair. It's also inefficient to build homeless shelters in dense LA county when there is so much cheap land throughout the country (with people looking for work, too).
