The White House points to LAHSA, which manages many homeless services for the city and county, as the example of why the program needs to go. The funding dispute over homelessness services is one front in a broader budget assault on California programs by the Trump administration. We can’t take care of day care.”If states want to offer those services, Trump said, they should raise taxes to pay for them.

The White House, for example, is seeking $152 million from Congress to turn Alcatraz back into a maximum-security prison, an idea the president has talked about for several years.
