❗️The Supreme Court just ruled to make it easier to jail or fine unhoused people for sleeping outside, even when adequate shelter or housing isn’t available.

This will only make homelessness worse.

Housing - not tickets, jail, or fines - ends homelessness.

‼️ BREAKING: #SCOTUS has struck down #JohnsonVGrantsPass, meaning that people experiencing homelessness CAN be arrested for sleeping in a public place when there are no adequate shelter options provided locally.
