Tiny homes are being built at a faster paste, which is incredible news.Although these tiny homes are a big step toward lowering the number of those unhoused, I believe affordable housing would be a better option.

Although it is great to see that a portion of the 6,266 unhoused will be sheltered within a year, more needs to be done.Leslie Gonzalez LemusSan JoseDemocrats were rightto stick to speaker gunsRe:...Wife of ex-Alaska pilot says she is in shock over averted disaster
