Questions loom over Trump's order to create housing for 6,000 homeless veterans
Briefly

President Trump issued an executive order instructing the Department of Veterans Affairs to establish a National Center for Warrior Independence on the West Los Angeles campus to address veteran homelessness. This initiative aims to support up to 6,000 veterans with necessary care and services. While veteran advocates welcomed the order as a presidential acknowledgment of their plight, skepticism remains regarding Trump's historical follow-through and the plan's feasibility, cost, and integration with existing housing projects that have already been ordered by courts. Questions linger over funding sources, especially with priorities potentially shifting away from assisting undocumented immigrants.
