Be prepared for the guest in the hotel room next to yours (https://www.foxnews.com/media/los-angeles-voters-decide-hotels-forced-house-homeless-safety-concerns)

Los Angeles voters to decide if hotels will be forced to house the homeless despite safety concerns

I could see the bigger hotels closing if this is voted in.
Another I don’t understand why things have to be given free everyone has the capability to earn their way.

Doesnt apply to higher priced hotels but smaller and lower priced hotels.
A replacement for the federal (covid project room key, but hotels would be required to report empty rooms and rent them to homeless families or individuals.

Its a good thing for many of those with poor credit and past criminal records that prevent them finding housing. There have been few instances of trouble.

As a hotel owner, I would understand the hesitancy. But if they are assured of payment, and appropriate oversight of such renters by the city, then so be it.

There are many ways I could say no I am not.

Its important to note that the super nice "big hotels" are not involved because the hotels rates must be met. According to descriptions of the program it is limited to smaller, discount hotels, and mom and pop type establishments.
Obviously so, since the rooms are not free.

Now many will benefit from government or state programs paying their rent no doubt. Under this program that money is guaranteed to go towards addressing the homeless problem, and if anything prevents system abuse.
.
But the point is, there are working individuals and families that cannot afford or qualify to buy a new home. And they cannot rent because of poor credit, past criminal records, etc..

And no doubt there are also some undesirables. But there is a genuine need being met. Lumping them all together into a lower class of human being for political argument is wrong imo.

Here is all I meant to clarify,
The hotels are out nothing. And the renters are obligated to obey the hotel rules in the same way as any guest.
