How California State Has One More Reason To Lock Horns With Trump

-

Californian officials are demanding release of housing voucher by Donald Trump to ease off the pressing housing crises in their largely populated state 




California is requesting Mr. Donald Trump’s to stop withholding federal housing vouchers that could benefit 50,000 homeless people. The state’s governor Gavin Newsom has declared a state of emergency with homeless nowhere to go and winter hitting temperatures to the lowest due to a world climatic crises.

This comes in the wake of systematic evacuation of illegal settlement of homeless around California, which has picked up steam in the last few weeks.
The issuance of federal housing vouchers was a program designed to assist low-income families, the elderly and the disabled find affordable homes in the private market. The programme was started at the time of the Great Depression in the 1960s and since then has existed to help the needing in states of the United States.

According to the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), there are 130,000 people homeless at any given point of time in California. According to Newsom, a signature of Trump is all it would take to put the scheme into action with HUD.

However, while the Trump administration seems to be not interested in helping out with the homeless problem in one of America’s most populace state, Newsom has released state funds to tackle the problem at hand.
Officials figures shared confirm a release of $650 million to be distributed across California to tackle the problem at hand.

The derailment became more apparent when Trump made a visit to the state in September and pounded the Californian officials over the lack of beautification of the state, due to a scattered population of the homeless lining the counties and cities in the state.
California has not shared a cordial relationship with the Republican President due to their skirmishes over auto emissions, high-speed rail funding, building a U.S.-Mexico border wall and immigration regulations.
Funds and rehabilitation of the homeless is new on the list.
