President-elect Donald Trump has a strategy to tackle the homeless crisis at the national level. He pitched his plan during his campaign, but the question now is: will it happen? And if it does, how will it affect communities here in the Northwest?

Trump outlined his vision last year on his "Agenda 47" website.

"Our once-great cities have become unlivable, unsanitary nightmares surrendered to the homeless, the drug-addicted, and the violent and dangerously deranged," Trump said.

"The homeless have no right to turn every park and sidewalk into a place for them to squat and do drugs. Americans should not have to step over piles of needles and waste as they walk down the street."
