Democratic California Assemblyman Corey Jackson introduced a bill making it easier for some college students in the Golden State to live in their cars on campus parking lots.

The legislation would require pilot parking programs be kickstarted by July 2025 , providing space for homeless college students to park on campus and live out of their vehicle.

Nearly half a million CCC students experienced homelessness in 2023 per a report from the California Legislative Analyst’s Office .

The proposal does not seem to sit well with the Community College League of California .
