Gov. Gavin Newsom to push California cities to implement bans against homeless encampments

California Gov. Gavin Newsom is planning Monday to make a significant push to address homeless encampments.

The governor's office is framing the address as a "statewide funding announcement" regarding California's mental health and homelessness issues.

As detailed by the governor's office, Newsom will be releasing a model ordinance that cities can use as a basis for their own local ordinances against homeless encampments.
