President Donald Trump has signed a sweeping executive order that marks a significant shift in federal homelessness policy. The order empowers states and cities to remove homeless encampments and directs federal agencies to prioritize funding for areas that crack down on urban camping, drug use, and loitering. It also advocates for treatment-first programs, which may include involuntary commitment for individuals deemed a risk to themselves or others.
