He questioned Myers, and shortly after, the two of them were deep in discussion about his life story, including his younger days and the circumstances that had led to him becoming homeless. Swalwell stated that he as an elderly man shouldn’t be on the streets, but because Myers did not have identification, he was ineligible for social security or assistance.

Because Myers lacked the necessary documentation, he was unable to acquire a new identification card. In addition, he did not have identification, which prevented him from receiving assistance from the government. This caused Swalwell a great deal of heartache, and as a result, he made a solemn vow to Myers that he would do all in his ability to get Myers off the street.
