Being homeless is not a criminal offense.|

John:

Federal courts have ruled that the constitution protects those who are experiencing homelessness from unreasonable government intrusion and prohibits excessive fines and cruel and unusual punishment, which should include sanctions for sitting, sleeping, or lying down in places where shelter is unavailable.

The lack of affordable housing in the U.S. has forced many diligent people to choose between basic necessities such as housing, food, or medication. Despite this, a city in Oregon is challenging the constitutional protections provided to our underserved communities and the Supreme Court will hear arguments in the case in April.

 

Demand Justice is leading the fight to #ExpandTheCourt. Now is the time to add four seats to the Supreme Court and confirm justices who will safeguard our democracy and our rights.
