Over immigration is a very big problem and is being used to undermine many greater problems our nation faces, like police brutally, homelessness, drug addiction, etc. thousands die throughout our city streets but our 'modern news' subliminally forcing many here to be over looked

I personally have talked to hundreds of homeless suffering under bridges, sitting off to the side hiding their suffering as much as anyone can; I have seen firsthand how when a homeless person dies they are forever forgotten, and while alive were looked at with hateful eyes.

Unfortunately many people dont care what citizens face; in the U.S. many are ok with the soaring levels of homelessness that is also directly linked to over immigration. If their citizens are suffering like ours here, then by what means can we help when have people that need also

The U.S. has millions of people being forced to deal with outside temperatures many run indoor to escape, many homeless losing hope as starvation eats at them slowly, many true to find help only to find out there are to many now going through the same issues thus creating more.

Growing up in the LA, so many new homeless teens and elderly, the number keeps growing and completely sidetracked by the 'modern news'. Not even their deaths placed in the newspapers obituaries, our homeless are aside, forgotten passing away by themselves alone for years.

Over immigration is putting thousands throughout many sanctuary city streets into the psychological state of torture, by allowing more immigrants to take jobs as high up as 'leaders' which in turn has played a huge roll in why tens of thousands of gen. Americans are homeless.

Over immigration the world over is pushing many citizens into the tortoise state of poverty and homelessness; subliminally twisting views hinder the millions around the world including our own, teens to elderly are suffering day by day. Over immigration / Overpopulation=Suffering

Many homeless are trying to even go back to their high school jobs but are finding it hard to even get into those jobs again, in cities like LA more non-English speaking immigrants illegal and legal alike are taking much of the work the homeless have been trying to get.

Many fast food restaurants, like mc donalds, carols jr. etc, throughout LA have only been hiring immigrants many of the homeless Americans arent even given a chance at getting those jobs due to the manager only wanting to help immigrants many illegal, CA isnt helping the homeless

I have been trying to bring this issue out to many county and city board meetings in LA, but nothing is being done to look into how one is connected to the other. Many homeless over time of not eating will turn to suicidal thoughts, petty theft, etc. They need funds personally.

Many of the problems that become worst over time have to deal with the fact that there is not enough funds being allocated to those that are homeless. Many of the new homeless are none drug addicts and many over time turn to them due to not having enough funds to eat, wash, etc

If it passes, say goodbye to the tech companies...

We could deport them and lety them come back seeking asylum. Maybe then the liberals and the media would support giving them special treatment.

Liberal's have plenty of money. Stop Jerry's $70+ Billion idiotic bullet train. JohnCox will access those funds & also audit State Agencies to fund affordable housing for CA. This is what 8 yrs of Newsom has done for SF

We'll see

Well, Nancy Pelosi, et al, are running on increasing taxes, so there is some dough.

Taxes that hurt companies, cut jobs, slow stock growth fueling workers’ 401ks, etc. just another reason to get your business out of California. Eventually the only people left there will be the ultra-rich and the homeless.

I have yet to hear anyone with a plan to remove the mentally ill that are refusing shelter.

BS, too many hands touch it before the people who benefit would see any of these dropping’s. The gas tax alone is BS

I should hope so. It's time to stop giving the wealthy a pass in this country. Pay your share!!!

And, as always, added taxes would be passed on to the consumer in the form of higher prices.

Finally.

Does new money ever go to what we’re are told? Are there any statistics?

And just like that, any company that is bringing the jobs to that area, would move to any other state and provide workers in the new state with a chance of success.
