A legal battle is mounting over Newsom's CARE Court. Three disability rights groups filed a lawsuit yesterday. The bill, signed into law last year, aims to tackle homelessness and mental health by compelling those with severe illness to get treatment.

SAN DIEGO – Disability rights groups filed a lawsuit Thursday, Jan. 26 in an attempt to block the rollout of Gov. Gavin Newsom’s far-reaching plan to address homelessness and the unhoused mentally ill by compelling treatment for thousands of transient people.

Disability Rights California, Western Center on Law and Poverty and the Public Interest Law Project asked the state’s high court to strike down the plan as a violation of the constitution. Senior Attorney Sarah Gregory for Disability Rights California joined KUSI’s Logan Byrnes to discuss the details of the lawsuit.

GOPDomesticTerrorists Texas GOP While I do wish the Texas foster care system would do better. I'm certain the children being held in the federal governments care aren't doing better. This'll get swept under the rug like it always does. Texas doesn't give a flying fuck about kids until it's voting time. After the votes are cast, all Texas and CPS give a fuck about is their bottom line. And free paychecks are at the top of the bottom line priority list.
