Homelessness programs face funding cuts
Once again, after announcements of new homeless projects (link from December), comes news of funding cuts.
I’ve mentioned recently seeing a cycle of news repetition in the areas of healthcare access and police bias, but the oscillation between announcements of new money and services for the homeless and announcements of funding cuts goes more quickly. Can’t imagine the feelings of people working in that field: how can you make plans when, at any moment, you know the plug can be pulled?

I saw someone on social media make a witty observation, since our budgets for the police are apparently infinite and homelessness is an issue of funding, the solution is clear: declare all the homeless police officers and put them on salary.
