[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I answered my own question… no there are far more than 221 homeless people in DC. The mayor is talking about people who are literally on the streets and not going to a shelter at night. Shame on her for giving a misleading answer like that.[/quote] Did anyone see the Congressional hearing where Rep. Timmons mentioned 5,000 homeless (the number that's usually given), and Bowser acted like she didn't have any idea what he was talking about and said it was only a few hundred? Then the two of them started arguing about that? The worst part is Timmons was trying to talk about Congress working together with D.C. to provide funds to address the problem, but Bowser wasted time arguing about it because she wanted to push deceptive numbers.[/quote]
