    “There's no sugarcoating the bad news,” Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti said at a news conference Wednesday where the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority released its report. “We can’t let rents double every year. I was particularly disappointed to see veteran numbers go up.”

I think I heard on NPR recently that the VA is gonna make some kind of mega campus for homeless veterans. Something along the lines of a campus that can hold 1k+? I could have sworn they said that it was gonna be in LA.

Edit: Here we go.
