The VA is proposing similar housing for veterans on its campus in West L.A. VA officials disclosed the tiny home plan during a hearing this week as the agency’s first step in complying with the court order. If the tiny homes are meant for the warrior center, there could be conflict with the court if it should deem them substandard. “Do you know the veterans in the past have been concerned about the conditions of the tiny homes?” Carter said. The tiny homes would replace a current parking lot and grassy field adjacent to the existing tiny home village alongside San Vicente Boulevard.

The multibillion-dollar Metro plan is considered one of the most significant transit projects in the country — and is finally moving forward after years of debate. A previous version estimated a price tag of about $24.2 billion, but Metro said that wasn’t accurate for the new model. “What we have before us is the potential to take more than a quarter of those 400,000 daily commuters out of their cars, off the 405 and onto public transit.

HHS said WHO had delayed declaring a global public health emergency, which cost the world critical weeks as the virus spread. Some experts said trying to manage global health through agreements with individual countries would create a patchwork system that won’t replace what the World Health Organization can do. “The U.S. withdrawal from the World Health Organization is a shortsighted and misguided abandonment of our global health commitments. “Withdrawing from the World Health Organization is scientifically reckless.

In a letter sent Wednesday night to White House chief of staff Susie Wiles, 14 Democrats are urging senior officials to “immediately disclose any financial interests” they have in companies dealing with the oil industry in Venezuela. Adam Schiff of California and Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts, among others — come as Democrats increasingly scrutinize the White House for what they say could amount to possible insider trading.
