On July 24, 2025, President Trump issued an Executive Order addressing the failures of the current approach to homelessness, and outlining the new direction the federal government will take.
Key points:
- Homelessness has increased every year for the last 8 years.
- States have been hamstrung into pouring money into failing services due to poor federal policy.
- The President’s Executive Order would place more power in the hands of the states to address their homeless populations.
