- Bass claimed that 95 percent of the city’s 40,000 homeless people would accept taxpayer-funded public housing if it was offered to them.
- When asked by Todd if she would allow LAPD and sanitation officers to continue doing sweeps of the encampments, she said, “no” and that she wanted to put the homeless people into hotels.
- “No, these are not sweeps at all. This is getting people to move on their own, but then after the person leaves sanitation is absolutely going to have to be there,” she said.
