Wealthy residents in a Democrat-led Californian city have been branded NIMBYs for fighting to keep 100 homeless people from being housed in a $134-a-night hotel.
Crowds of angry Millbrae residents packed out their local community hall on Friday to protest 'Project Homekey' proposals to house rough sleepers at the La Quinta hotel on El Camino Real, close to the city center.
While hundreds of belligerent residents continue their fight to halt the homeless housing plans, others have slammed the Dem-majority's hypocrisy for voting in liberal leaders but then pushing back on progressive policies.
About 95 percent of Millbrae's homeless population are currently congregating and sleeping at the Bay Area Rapid Transit station. The city is the last stop before San Francisco Airport, hence why many homeless people traveling south from San Francisco end up there.
Over 74 percent of residents in San Mateo County, which includes Millbrae, voted for Democrat Governor Gavin Newsom in November 2022 - with just one quarter of all ballots voting for the Republican candidate.
Comment:
Compassionate Democrats is a myth.
Democrat economic policies caused California's poverty and homelessness problems.
