The Supreme Court has made it legal for Cities to ban unhoused people from living in the street by making a crime to do so with jail time. Would you support your City from proposing a similar ban? If your City already has a ban, would you advocate to overturn the ban and allow for unhoused people their right to sleep and be housed?

We're working tirelessly to reverse decades of inaction on homelessness. We must support the most vulnerable, ensure they receive the care they need, and keep our streets clean and safe for all residents. If a bed is available, people need to use it. We must provide enough shelter space & treatment beds for everyone sleeping on the streets – we cannot criminalize poverty by putting people in jail for sleeping on a sidewalk if they have nowhere else to go. We must continue accelerating efforts to move people into shelters, tiny homes, safe camping sites, substance abuse treatment, & mental health supportive services.
