AFTER HOMELESS AUDIT, A BILL TO BRING TRANSPARENCY TO SPENDING
Weeks after the California State Auditor released a report critical of the California Interagency Council on Homelessness for failing to track billions in state spending, one of the lawmakers behind that audit — Assemblyman Josh Hoover, R-Folsom — has introduced a bill that would require the Cal ICH to begin doing so by no later than next year.
AB 2903 would require state agencies involved with homelessness to report annually to the Cal ICH cost and outcome data for each program they administer, and would require Cal ICH to compile that data and make it available to the public by Sept. 1, 2025.
