LISTEN: @KPCC asks #LA28 Chair Casey Wasserman about Olympic opposition. His callous response to concerns about encampment sweeps is disgusting.
“We’re not responsible for solving homelessness. We’re responsible for delivering the Olympic Games as a private enterprise in 2028.”

Reminder: #LA28 Chair Casey Wasserman also runs #SuperBowlLVI.
If you’ve never heard the clip of Casey dismissing concerns over how marginalized people are treated in the lead-up to his mega events, check it out below. It is ghoulish.
