2022 CA Governor's race: on Health Care

Brian Dahle: Strengthen our rehabilitation and mental health services

The ISSUE: California makes up 29% of the homeless in the entire country while only being 12% of the nation's total population.
The TRUTH: Without dealing with mental health issues, drug addiction, and rising housing prices, we will find more people on the street.
The PLAN: Do an audit to determine what programs are working and which ones are not. Strengthen our rehabilitation and mental health services. Remove the barriers to building affordable housing.
