In 2024, there were approximately 3,000 homeless veterans in the Los Angeles area. This represents the largest population of homeless veterans in the nation, the White House stated. This accounts for about 10 percent of all homeless veterans.

This needs to begin now so it can work its way through court challenges by Democrats.
