California narrowly passes Prop 1 plan aimed at tackling homelessness crisis

Measure, a win for governor but criticized by disability rights advocates, will raise $6.4bn for housing and treatment facilities

California voters narrowly approved a measure that will dramatically restructure the state's mental health system.

The Associated Press called the race two days after polls closed. Proposition 1, which was the only statewide measure on California's ballot on Super Tuesday, is key to Gavin Newsom's plan to address the homelessness crisis.
