“These new buildings will provide safe, comfortable, and reliable housing for 380 of our nation’s heroes and their families,” Congressman Ted Lieu said during the groundbreaking event. “Today’s groundbreaking is a fantastic beginning in the right direction, but we’ll keep working to make sure that all of our veterans have a secure place to live. To put an end to veteran homelessness, I am looking forward to working with the Biden Administration, my congressional colleagues, our state and local authorities, activists, and other veterans.
