State Senator Scott Wiener
"Alternative, non-police responses are better for everyone involved, when possible. It's not the best use of our police officers’ time when an issue could be handled by a health professional. It’s also becoming a priority at the state level to create more funding support for these outreach alternatives."
State Assemblymember Phil Ting
"I am concerned that we are experiencing a major housing and homelessness crisis in California. It's absolutely critical to build housing to accommodate more of our population, as well as those who continually arrive from other parts of the country and from around the world. California provides a beacon of hope to many communities from elsewhere who want to come here."
