Her absence from these meetings throughout her tenure has drawn sharp criticism, particularly as homelessness continues to rise across the county.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/sandiegonewsdesk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/IMG_0168.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-11843\" src=\"https:\/\/sandiegonewsdesk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/IMG_0168.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"938\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sandiegonewsdesk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/IMG_0168.jpeg 938w, https:\/\/sandiegonewsdesk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/IMG_0168-300x128.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/sandiegonewsdesk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/IMG_0168-740x316.jpeg 740w, https:\/\/sandiegonewsdesk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/IMG_0168-150x64.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/sandiegonewsdesk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/IMG_0168-768x328.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 938px) 100vw, 938px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Adding to the controversy, Lawson-Remer\u2019s name and position as vice chair appear in official records, revealing that she has not attended a single CoC Board meeting until recently. The timing of her sudden appearance\u2014just weeks before the November election\u2014has sparked accusations that the move is purely political. Critics argue that her absence reflects a troubling lack of seriousness in addressing the region\u2019s homelessness crisis.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShe\u2019s been lying to voters about her involvement on the board for years,\u201d said one observer familiar with the board\u2019s work. \u201cFor someone entrusted to tackle such a critical issue, it\u2019s appalling that she not only failed to show up but also misled people about her responsibilities.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A mailer recently distributed to voters further highlights Lawson-Remer\u2019s misleading statements. The mailer claims that Lawson-Remer has not been on the CoC Board\u2014a statement now proven false. Voters are left questioning why the Supervisor failed to engage with the task force despite holding a key leadership position.<\/p>\n<p>The Continuum of Care board plays a crucial role in shaping the region\u2019s homelessness response, bringing together elected officials and service providers to coordinate funding and programs. As the county\u2019s only representative on the board, Lawson-Remer had an opportunity to drive meaningful solutions but instead remained absent.<\/p>\n<p>Lawson-Remer\u2019s opponents have been quick to call out the discrepancy. \u201cThis isn\u2019t just a broken promise\u2014this is outright deception,\u201d said a local resident. \u201cHer failure to show up while homelessness worsened is embarrassing, and now she\u2019s scrambling to cover it up because it\u2019s election season.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>With homelessness becoming an increasingly urgent issue, the latest revelations have raised questions about Lawson-Remer\u2019s leadership and priorities. Her absence from critical meetings has left many wondering whether she is fit to serve in a role that demands consistent action and accountability.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SAN DIEGO, CA \u2014 Supervisor Terra Lawson-Remer has been exposed once again for misleading the public\u2014this time about her involvement with the Regional Taskforce on Homelessness (RTFH).
