infusion

But Los Angeles now has a substantial infusion of continuing, dedicated funding to make a dent in homelessness.

Some small steps have been taken by Councilmember Eunisses Hernandez and others, but the suffering neighborhood needs a massive infusion of rehab services, more medical intervention, city and county collaboration and housing and social services of every type, along with the kind of law enforcement initiative launched by Beck in 2003.

Democrats are going to need an infusion of electoral votes over the following decade to make up for those lost in anchor states like California, New York, and Illinois in the next census.

"To raise that, in a single year, up to a million would require a massive infusion of resources that likely don't exist," Aaron Reichlin-Melnick, policy director at the American Immigration Council, told the BBC.
