Los Angeles city officials rake in more cash than White House Cabinet members as homeless crisis continues to rise

Los Angeles city officials earned more money than White House Cabinet members, despite an increase in the city's homeless crisis.

Complaints regarding to crime, trash, needle debris and more, attributed to homeless encampment skyrocketed, sparking issue with the high pay of city officials overseeing the homeless crisis in the city.

Data shows a 14.2 percent increase for homeless within city limits in 2020, according to the city census.

The census recorded a current number of 40,000 individuals that are homeless in the city of Los Angeles.

The city blamed an influx of vagrants flocking to the city for the surging homeless population.

The city of Los Angeles is now trying to find ways to reduce costs by laying off city officials.

Three-fourths of these positions the city is looking target are members of the Los Angeles Police Department.
