Federal Judge Orders Housing for Veterans in Los Angeles
A federal judge has ordered the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to construct over 2,500 housing units for veterans on its West Los Angeles campus, citing a failure to adequately support veterans for decades. U.S. District Judge David O. Carter ruled that existing leases with private entities, including UCLA and Brentwood School, are illegal as they do not primarily benefit veterans. He criticized the VA for allowing the campus to be mismanaged, resulting in a loss of land and resources intended for veterans. The judge mandated the VA to build 750 temporary units within 12 to 18 months and develop plans for 1,800 permanent units, alongside increasing outreach efforts to assist homeless veterans. The ruling highlights systemic issues within the VA, including alleged bribery and corruption. The VA expressed its commitment to addressing veteran homelessness while reviewing the court's decision.
