"California's Homeless Crisis Exposes Mismanagement of Billions in Funding"

Former MLB star and Republican U.S. Senate candidate Steve Garvey expressed shock at the depth of California's homeless crisis and pledged to seek a federal audit of the state's spending, which has amounted to $24 billion since 2018 with little evidence of its impact. Garvey, who has been traveling throughout the state, emphasized the need for leadership and political courage to address the issue, criticizing the current approach of simply throwing money at it. He aims to involve the private sector and push for accountability through a federal audit once in Washington D.C.
