The Real Fix to Homelessness
The U.S. Supreme Court has issued its decision on City of Grants Pass, Oregon v. Johnson. In a disappointing ruling, the Supreme Court decided that the U.S. Constitution does not protect people against cruel and unusual punishment for sleeping outside, even if they have nowhere else to go. This decision doubles down on phony fixes like ticketing and arresting people experiencing homelessness and stands to further stymie the ability of individuals to secure employment, housing, or government support.
