Part 12... Infractions and Due Process Rights Ant $Part 12... Infractions and Due Process Rights Anti-homeless laws and ordinances and their application have, in fact, created a loophole that allows for the circumvention of a homeless person’s right to due process under law. The process by which homeless people face repeated incarceration generally follows this scenario: A homeless man is sleeping on the sidewalk. A local ordinance makes it illegal to do so. The man gets a ticket and is later arrested for not paying the ticket. He spends a couple of days in jail, and is just as homeless now as he was before, only now he has a criminal record. This was the case for many of the individuals interviewed by RWHP. One man relayed the familiar scenario, “I was sleeping in a tent in a hidden spot near the freeway. They gave me a ticket for trespassing. I don’t have money to pay it. I’ve never been in jail before. I keep to myself, but now they’re going to make me a convict just for sleeping.”$

We are partnering with our member organization, Residents Organizing for Change (ROC), to show up at City Hall at 1:30 pm to gather and ensure we let city hall leaders know that we oppose this plan and ask that they fund policies that are rooted in dignity and sustainability.

This budget allocation does not prioritize funding housing- which is the answer to homelessness. City Council will hear public testimony on the proposed budget adjustments on Thursday, November 17th at 2 pm.
